... Probability and Counting Rules A researcher claims that 10% of a large population have disease H. A random sample of 100 people is taken from this population and examined. If 20 people in this random sample have the disease, what does it mean? How likely would this happen if the researcher is right? ...

... A conditional probability for an event is calculated when some additional information about the outcome of the experiment is known. Suppose A and B are two events for an experiment, and suppose that it is known that event B has occurred. We can recalculate the probability of event A based on this in ...

Constructing k-wise Independent Variables
... Induction step: We will show the statement still holds when |T | = s + 1 ≤ k. Since G is k-unique and |T | ≤ k, there is an element of T , call it x0 , that has a neighbor r0 that none of the other elements of T have as a neighbor. By the induction hypothesis, T \ {x0 } are linearly independent, and ...
