Intro to Probability and Statistics
Mr. Spering – Room 113
6.5 Combining Probabilities Find the probability.
What is the probability of rolling 2 or a 5 on a number cube? 2/6 or 33.33% A bag contains 32 red marbles, 30 blue marbles, and 18 white
marbles. You pick one marble from the bag. Find P (picking blue).
3/8 or 37.5% P (not a red) 3/5 or 60% What is the probability of having a sample with mean age
between 35 years and 45 years, given the population mean is 40 years and the standard of deviation is 2.5 years?
95% Using a regulation deck of cards. What is the probability of
choosing a Queen of Hearts? 1/52, 0.019, or 1.9%

6.5 Combining Probabilities PERMUTATIONS = Arrangements (Order matters) Permutations: The number of ways of arranging X objects
selected from n objects in order is
Example: Your restaurant has five menu choices, and three are selected
for daily specials. How many different ways can the specials menu be ordered?

6.5 Combining Probabilities COMBINATIONS = Grouping (Order does not matter) Combinations: The number of ways of selecting X
objects from n objects, irrespective of order, is
Example: Your restaurant has five menu choices, and three are
selected for daily specials. How many different special combinations are there, ignoring the order in which they are selected?

6.5 Combining Probabilities Joint Probabilities (AND probabilities) Independent VS. Dependent… Independent events are events where the outcomes of one does
not affect the outcomes of another. Dependent events are events where the outcome of one will affect the outcome of another.
Independent → flipping a coin
Dependent → Drawing two cards after drawing a card
6.5 Combining Probabilities Independent…
AND probability… Considering two independent events A and B
that have individual probabilities P(A) and P(B). The probability that A and B occur together is:
Concept may be extended for more than 2 events.
