BAYES THEOREM
3. Definition of Partition
Let the events B1, B2, , Bn be non-empty subsets
of a sample space S for an experiment. The Bi’s
are a partition of S if the intersection of any two of
them is empty, and if their union is S. This may be
stated symbolically in the following way.
1. Bi Bj = , unless i = j.
2. B1 B2 Bn = S.
5. Example 1
Your retail business is considering holding
a sidewalk sale promotion next Saturday.
Past experience indicates that the
probability of a successful sale is 60%, if it
does not rain. This drops to 30% if it does
rain on Saturday. A phone call to the
weather bureau finds an estimated
probability of 20% for rain. What is the
probability that you have a successful
sale?
6. Example 1
Events
R- rains next Saturday
N -does not rain next Saturday.
A -sale is successful
U- sale is unsuccessful.
Given
P(A|N) = 0.6 and P(A|R) = 0.3.
P(R) = 0.2.
In addition we know R and N are complementary events
P(N)=1-P(R)=0.8
Our goal is to compute P(A).

P(A) = P(R A) + P(N A)
8. P(A)- Probability that you have a
Successful Sale
We need P(R A) and P(N A)
Recall from conditional probability
P(R A)= P(R )* P(A|R)=0.2*0.3=0.06
Similarly
P(N A)= P(N )* P(A|N)=0.8*0.6=0.48
Using P(A) = P(R A) + P(N A)
=0.06+0.48=0.54
9. Let us examine P(A|R)
Consider P(A|R)

probability that sale is
successful given that it
rains

13. Example 2
In a recent New York Times article, it was
reported that light trucks, which include
SUV’s, pick-up trucks and minivans,
accounted for 40% of all personal vehicles on
the road in 2002. Assume the rest are cars.
Of every 100,000 car accidents, 20 involve a
fatality; of every 100,000 light truck accidents,
25 involve a fatality. If a fatal accident is
chosen at random, what is the probability the
accident involved a light truck?
14. Example 2
Events
C- Cars
T –Light truck
F –Fatal Accident
N- Not a Fatal Accident
Given
P(F|C) = 20/10000 and P(F|T) = 25/100000
P(T) = 0.4
In addition we know C and T are complementary events
P(C)=1-P(T)=0.6
Our goal is to compute the conditional probability of a Light truck
accident given that it is fatal P(T|F).

28. Further Investigation I
let Y be the event that a borrower has 6, 7, or 8 years of
experience in the business.
Using the range
Let Z be the random variable giving the amount of
money, in dollars, that Acadia Bank receives from a
future loan work out attempt to borrowers with Y and a
Bachelor’s Degree, in normal times. When all of the
calculations are redone, with Y replacing Y, we find that P(Y

The expected value of Z is E(Z ) $2,341,000.
Since this is above the foreclosure value of
$2,100,000, a loan work out attempt is
indicated.
30. Further Investigation II
Let Y" be the event that a borrower has 5, 6,
7, 8, or 9 years of experience in the business
Let Z" be the random variable giving the
amount of money, in dollars, that Acadia Bank
receives from a future loan work out attempt
to borrowers with 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 years
experience and a Bachelor's Degree, in
normal times. Redoing our work yields the
follow results.

Based upon all of our calculations, we
