What Key word do you associate with sequence of events and what rules of probability do you use?

The key word that I use is causality. However, you cannot use probability to determine causality. Even if two events are highly correlated, probability theory cannot tell whether event A is caused by event B, or event B is caused by event A, or that both are caused by some third event that is not even part of the study.

Does empirical rules always apply to discrete probability distribution?
the empirical rules of probablility applies to the continuous probability distribution
How are going to determine the probability of an event?
See the Basic Rules for Probability section in the related link.
What is the probability of a heavyweight boxer winning the flyweight division?
The probability is zero since the rules governing boxing would not permit a heavyweight boxer to fight at flyweight.
What is the nth term in the sequence 3 7 11?
One of the infinitely many possible rules for the nth term of the sequence is t(n) = 4n - 1
What does event mean in maths?
Something that may or may not happen as in the rules of probability from a scale of 1 to 0
What are the rules of probability?
Basic Rules of Probability:1) The probability of an event (E) is a number (fraction or decimal) between and including 0 and 1. (0≤P(E)≤1)2) If an event (E) cannot occur its probability is 0.3) If an event (E) is certain to occur, then the probability if E is 1. This means that there is a 100% chance that something will occur.4) The sum of probabilities of all the outcomes in the sample space is 1.Addition Rules/Formulas:When two events (A and B) are mutually exclusive, meaning that they can't occur at the same time or they have no outcomes in common, the probability that A or B will occur is:P(A or B)= P(A)+P(B)If A and B are not mutually exclusive, then:P(A or B)= P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)Multiplication Rules/Formulas:When two events (A and B) are independent events, meaning the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring (for example flipping a coin, rolling a die, or picking a card), the probability of both occurring is:P(A and B)= P(A)P(B)Conditional Probability-When two events are dependent (not independent), the probability of both occurring is:P(A or B)= P(A)P(B|A)Note: P(B|A) does not mean B divided by A but the probability of B after A.

What are the two laws of probability?
There are numerous laws or rules. The related link probably described the most basic of them, listed below: 1. For any event, the probability must be between 0 and 1, inclusive. 2. The sum of all the events must equal 1.
Consider the following sequence of events: Congress passes a law The President vetoes it Congress overrides the veto The law is appealed to the Supreme Court, which rules it unconstitutional What?
checks and balances
How algebra is linked with sequence?
Some sequences are defined by rules and algebra is a mathematical way of describing rules.

What is the probability that the random variable has a value less than 5?
That depends on the rules that define the random variable.
What does event mean in maths?
Something that may or may not happen as in the rules of probability from a scale of 1 to 0
What are the rules in numbering?
There are no 'rules'. Things are numbered in sequence, usually starting with 1 and increasing by 1 - so we get 1, 2 3, 4,..... etc.
