Section 3.2 Conditional Probabilities
... TERMINOLOGY: When an experiment consists of repeated subexperiments (like tossing a coin), we call each subexperiment a trial. If we assume that the outcome of any subset of the trials has no effect on the outcomes of the other trials, we say the trials are independent. EXAMPLE: An infinite sequenc ...

... Example 14 (Ross, Section 3.4, Example 4h) Consider independent trials consisting of rolling a pair of fair dice, over and over. What is the probability that a sum of 5 appears before a sum of 7? Let E be the event that we see a sum of 5 before a sum of 7. We want to compute P (E). The easy way to s ...
