 179  \section{Probability}
 180
 181  \[ \Pr(A \cup B) = \Pr(A) + \Pr(B) - \Pr(A \cap B) \]
 182  \[ \Pr(A \cup B) = 0 \tag{mutually exclusive} \]
 183
 184  \subsection{Conditional probability}
 185
 186  \[ \Pr(A|B)=\dfrac{\Pr(A \cap B)}{\Pr(B)} \]
 187  \[ \Pr(A \cap B) = \Pr(A|B) \times \Pr(B) \tag{multiplication theorem} \]
 188  \[ \Pr(A \cap B) = \Pr(A) \times \Pr(B) \tag{independent events} \]
 189
 190  \subsection{Discrete random distributions}
 191
 192  Any experiment or activity involving chance will have a probability associated with each result or \textit{outcome}. If the outcomes have a reference to \textbf{discrete numeric values} (outcomes that can be counted), and the result is unknown, then the activity is a \textit{discrete random probability distribution}.
 193
 194  \subsubsection{Discrete probability distributions}
 195  
 196  If an activity has outcomes whose probability values are all positive and less than one ($\implies 0 \le p(x) \le 1$), and for which the sum of all outcome probabilities is unity ($\implies \sum p(x) = 1$), then it is called a \textit{probability distribution} or \textit{probability mass} function.
 197
 198  \begin{itemize}
 199    \item \textbf{Probability distribution graph} - a series of points on a cartesian axis representing results of outcomes. $\Pr(X=x)$ is on $y$-axis, $x$ is on $x$ axis.
 200    \item \textbf{Mean $\mu$} - measure of central tendency. \textit{Balance point} or \textit{expected value} of a distribution. Centre of a symmetrical distribution.
 201    \item \textbf{Variance $\sigma^2$} - measure of spread of data around the mean. Not the same magnitude as the original data. Represented by $\sigma^2=\operatorname{Var}(x) = \sum (x=\mu)^2 \times p(x) = \sum (x-\mu)^2 \times \Pr(X=x)$. Alternatively: $\sigma^2 = \operatorname{Var}(X) = \sum x^2 \times p(x) - \mu^2$
 202    \item \textbf{Standard deviation $\sigma$} - measure of spread in the original magnitude of the data. Found by taking square root of the variance: $\sigma =\operatorname{sd}(X)=\sqrt{\operatorname{Var}(X)}$
 203  \end{itemize}
 204
 205  \subsection{Binomial distribution (Bernoulli trials)}
 206  
 207  A type of discrete probability distribution. This distribution has the following characteristics:
 208  
 209  \begin{enumerate}
 210    \item Samples are taken from a population size that remains constant (\textit{sampling with replacement})
 211    \item Every result or trial can be classed as either a \textit{success} or \textit{failure}
 212    \item The probability of a succcess is the same from one trial to the next, notated by $p$
 213    \item The probability of a failure is the complement of the probability of a success, notated by $1-p$
 214    \item There are a finite number of trials that define the sample size, notated by $n$
 215  \end{enumerate}
 216  
 217  \subsubsection{Bernoulli trials}
 218  
 219  Same properties as above. Number of successes in a finite number of Bernoulli trials is defined as the \textbf{binomial distribution}. The distribution can take the form:
 220  \[X \sim \operatorname{Bi}(n,p) \]
 221  
 222  Then, the probability values for each value of $X$ follow the rule:
 223  \[ p(x) = {n \choose x}(p)^x(1-p)^{n-x} \]
 224
 225  \subsection{Continuous random distributions}
 226
 227  If the outcomes of an activity have a reference to \textit{continuous numeric} values (outcomes that can be measured), then the activity is associated with a \textbf{continuous probability distribution}. The probabilities are calculuated by finding the area under the graph between the required $x$ values (integrate).
 228
 229  The probability of a single \textit{outcome value} does not exist for continuous probability distributions.
 230
 231  \subsection{Continuous probability distributions}
 232
 233  If an experiment or activity has a \textbf{function} whose values are all positive ($\implies f(x) \ge 0 \forall x$), and for which the area under the graph between the lowest outcome value and the greatest outcome value is unity ($\implies \int^{\text{upper}}_{\text{lower}} f(x) \ dx = 1$), then it is called a \textbf{probability density function}.
 234
 235  Example probability density function: $f(x)=\begin{cases}k(9-x^2), & 0\le x \le 3\\0, &\text{elsewhere}\end{cases}$
 236
 237  \subsection{Normal distributions}
 238  
 239  A very specific and special continuous probability distribution. Characteristics:
 240  \begin{itemize}
 241    \item Many sets of data occurring naturally and taken randomly will have a normal distribution
 242    \item No single outcome value can be calculated
 243    \item Probabilities are found between certain outcome values of the distribution
 244    \item The values of the distribution are symmetrical around the mean ($\mu$) and form a bell-shaped curve
 245    \item The distribution is best described using its central or mean value, $\mu$, and its measure of spread, $\sigma$
 246    \item The distribution can take the form $X\sim N(\mu, \sigma^2)$
 247  \end{itemize}
