Exercise 4
... Hint. You may use the following property of the expectation operator that you are not required to prove here: if Z1 , Z2 are random variables such that Z1 = Z2 , P-a.s., then E[Z1 ] = E[Z2 ]. 10. Suppose that X is a random variable defined on a probability space (Ω, F , P) such that X ≥ 0, P-a.s ...

... SECTION 15.5 EQUIPROBABLE SPACES PART 2 INDEPENDENT EVENTS: two events are said to be independent if the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other. Example of Independent Events: #1: Tossing a coin twice times #2: Rolling a die consecutive times #3: Choo ...

... probability of A’s release is 13 / 31 + 16 , or 23 , and mathematics comes round to common sense after all. Because this is such a tricky example, a bit more elaboration may be in order. If A is to be released, the warder’s hands are tied. Since he cannot tell A that A will be released, he must name ...

... Multiplication Rule for Independent Events—the probability of two independent events A and B occurring together: P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) Example: Let the experiment be flipping a coin and then rolling a die. What is the probability of getting “heads” and “4?” First, are these independent events? Ye ...
