AP Stats Chapter 8 Notes: The Binomial and Geometric Distributions
... Look back at the switches example, you could have just done binomialcdf (10, 0.1, 1) and it will automatically calculate the probability X = 1 and X = 0 and add them together. ...

... The probability of every set of possible events is between 0 and 1, inclusive. The probability of the whole set of outcomes is 1. Sum of all probability is equal to one Example for a dice: P(1)+P(2)+P(3)+ P(4)+P(5)+P(6)=1 If A and B are two events with no common outcomes, then the probability of ...

... Comments on Degree of Belief • Different agents can have different probability models – There is no necessarily “correct” p(x) – Why? Because p(x) is a model built on whatever assumptions or background information we use – Naturally leads to the notion of updating • p(x | BI) -> p(x | BI, CI) ...
