11.6 Probabilities Involving NOT and OR
Problem 1	 Imagine throwing a die.  What is the probability of getting a 2? What is the probability of not getting a 2?
Probability of an Event NOT occurring (a.k.a. P (NOT) ) The probability that an event E will not occur is equal to 1 minus the probability that it will occur P (not E) = 1 โ€“ P (E)
Sample Problems (# 2) If you throw a die, what is the probability of not getting an even number? If you are dealt one card from a standard 52-deck card, what is the probability of not getting A king? A heart? A picture card?
Problem # 3  Assume that it is equally probable that the pointer will land on any one of the five numbered spaces.  Find the probability of not getting a 2 Find the probability of not getting an odd number
ODDS Odds in favor of an event = P (E)                                          P (not E) Odds against E = P (not E)                                P (E) Note: Odds in favor and odds against are reciprocals.
Sample Problems (#4) In a standard 52-deck card,  Find the odds in favor of getting a king Find the odds  against getting a diamond Find the odds in favor of getting a black ace Find the odds against getting a red picture card
Sample Problems (# 5) If you toss 2 coins together, the possible outcomes are {HH, HT, TH, TT} Find the odds in favor of getting two heads Find the odds against getting a head and a tail.
Odds to Probability If the odds in favor of event E are a to b, then the probability of the event is  P(E) =    a             a + b Example: The odds in favor of winning a horse winning a race are 2 to 5.  What is the probability that the horse will win?
Probabilities Involving OR Mutually exclusive events โ€“ events that occur simultaneously  If A and B are mutually exclusive events, then  	P(A or B) = P (A) + P(B) Example:  In a standard 52-deck card, what is the probability of getting a king or a queen?
Sample Problems (# 6) If you roll a single die, what is the probability of getting:  3 or a 5 A number less than 3 or number greater than 4
Probabilities Involving OR  What if the events are not mutually exclusive? OR Probabilities with events that are not mutually exclusive If A and B are not mutually exclusive, then  P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) โ€“ P (A and B) Suppose youโ€™re asked to pick a card from  a standard 52-deck card.  What is the probability of getting a king or a diamond?
Sample Problems (# 7) Assume that it is equally probable that the pointer will land on any one of the five numbered spaces. What is the probability of getting a number greater than 2 or an odd number? What is the probability of getting an odd number or a  number less than or equal to 3?
