Question

I dont understand this, please help me understand :( I will give you a shiny medal :)

Answer 1

\[P(E and F) = P(E)0.45 and P(F) = 0.5\]

Answer 2

so I know its the conditional probability rule?

Answer 3

so the question is, what is P(F l E)?

Answer 4

do I multiply them?

Answer 5

I want a shiny medal, but I don't understand this either. *^*

Answer 6

Oh awwie, xD

Answer 7

Do you know anyone who understands probability?

Answer 8

RULE of Probability
Probability OF failure+ Probability of success=1

Answer 9

so.. its 0.48+0.5 = 0.98?

Answer 10

The answer is supposed to be 0.96.. :(

Answer 11

What does the term (E | F) mean? Was I supposed to do: 0.98 *0.48* 0.5? If so why?

Answer 12

Numbers at the top aren't legible.

P(E|F) means probability of E, given F already occurred. http://www.stat.yale.edu/Courses/1997-98/101/cond.gif

Answer 13

\[\large P(E|F) =\frac{ P( E \text { and } F)}{ P(F) }\]

Answer 14

Sorry, I had to do something and go somewhere, but Ahh! I see, thank you very much for explaining it to me.

Answer 15

My apologies for replying so late, but I see now what you mean. so since it's the "probability of E given F already occurred" Then that means, 0.48 / 0.5 = 0.96 since its just P(E and F) = 0.48 and P(E) = 0.5 so just: 0.48/0.5 as the equation you inserted! :D Thank you so much for taking your time to explain :D
