Conditional Probability Problem 1 Conditional probability In group of 200 university students, 140 are full time students (80 females and 60 males) and 60 no full time students (40 females and 20 males). Let    M=event a student is male    W=event a student is a female    F=event a student is full time    FC= event a student is not full time 1) Find the probability that a student is male and full time    2) Find the probability...

Simulating a conditional probability using R. Simulating the conditional probability P(A|B) requires repeated simulation of the underlying random experiment, but restricting to trials in which B occurs. Suppose 3 dice are tossed and we want to find the probability of the first die is 4 given that the sum is 10. Modify the script ConditionalDice.R (you can find the R script file from Modules on this Canvas site) to find P(First die is 4 | Sum is 10) Hint: the...

Calculate the conditional probability distribution, ?(?|?)P(B|A). 7. Does ?(?|?)=?(?|?)P(A|B)=P(B|A)? What do we call the belief that these are always equal? 8. Does ?(?)=?(?|?)P(A)=P(A|B)? What does that mean about the independence of ? and B?

In probability theory, a conditional probability measures the probability of an event given another event has occurred. The conditional probability of A given B, denoted by P(A|B), is defined by P(A|B) = P(A ∩ B) P(B) , provided P(B) > 0. Show that the conditional probability defined above is a probability set function. That is show that a) P(A|B) ≥ 0 [4 Marks] b) P(S|B) = 1. [4 Marks] c) P( S Ai |B) = PP(Ai |B) [4 Marks]

A software company is trying to use Bayes Theorem and other rules of probability to develop an algorithm that can effectively filter out spam emails. The company’s software developers carefully examined a random sample of 5,000 emails received by its employees and found out that 1200 of the emails were spam. A closer look at the spam emails revealed that 300 of them contained the word ‘free’ in the subject line. On the other hand, only 228 of the non-spam...

Using the data found in Table 4 and Bayes’ Formula, determine the probability that a randomly selected patient will have Strep Throat given the SARTD test result was positive. Use the CDC stated prevalence of 25%. Round answer to nearest hundredth of a percent (i.e. 45.67%). Then using the same Table 4, and Bayes’ Formula, determine the probability that a randomly selected patient will not have Strep Throat given the SARTD test result was negative. Use the CDC stated prevalence...
