How do you find the probability of independent and dependent events?

P(A given B)*P(B)=P(A and B), where event A is dependent on event B. Finding the probability of an independent event really depends on the situation (dart throwing, coin flipping, even Schrodinger's cat...).

How do you find the probability of two distincve events?
It depends on whether or not the events are independent.
How do you find the probability of an event followed by another event?
If the events are independent then you can multiply the individual probabilities. But if they are not, you have to use conditional probabilities.
How do you find the probability of disjoint events?
Multiply the possible outcomes of the events in the disjoint events
How do you find the probability of 2 dependent events?
That will depends entirely on how the two events are related. For instance, there may be a weak correlation, or a strong correlation, between two probabilities. You really need more information, about how the events are related. There is no single simple rule.
HOW to find the product of two probability density functions?
The answer depends on whether or not the two variables are independent.
How do you find the probability of multiple events?
The answer depends on whether or not the events are independent.
How don you find the answers to simple independent events?
you find the probability
How do you find the probability of two distincve events?
It depends on whether or not the events are independent.
How do you find the probability of an event followed by another event?
If the events are independent then you can multiply the individual probabilities. But if they are not, you have to use conditional probabilities.
Find the probability that in a family of 4 children will be a at least 1 boy and 3 girls?
There is no simple answer to the question because children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes. However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the answer is 0.2331.
How can the rule for the probability of 2 independent events be extended to 4 or 5 independent events?
p(A and B) = p(A) x p(B) for 2 independent events p(A and B and ...N) = p(A) x p(B) x p(C) x ...x p(N) In words, if these are all independent events, find the individual probabilities if each and multiply them all together.
How do you find the probability of disjoint events?
Multiply the possible outcomes of the events in the disjoint events

How do you find the probability of an independent variable?
you choose the independent variable, for example to see if aspirin helps bee stings, you choose whether or not to put it on. Aspirin is the independent variable, probability is not involved.
How do you find the probability of A and B when you don't know the probability of A given B?
If A and B are independent, then you can multiply the two probabilities
How do you pick out independent variables and dependent variables?
An Independent variable is what you control; you decide the focus of your experiment and what you control on the independent variable. Dependent variable is what you want to look at or find results for; you decide what you want to see from manipulating your independent variable.
What is an IVCDV chart?
independent variable- constants- dependent variable an independent variable is the one to changeand the constants is what u do nuthin to and the dependent variable is what u are trying to find out
