When talking about probability what is a favorable outcome?
Favourable outcomes in a series of trials are those where the outcome is what you are looking for. The word "favourable" has positive connotations in normal usage but that should not be applied here. For example, if I am studying the spread of a fatal infectious diseases, the event that would be looking for is that someone gets infected. In all likelihood, no one will consider that to be favourable in the normal sense! The probability of an event is the ratio of the favourable outcomes to the total number of trials.
What are the types of probability?
They are generally agreed to be theoretical and experimental probabilities. Probability is probability. The concept may be applied to any causal event which has more than one potential outcome.
A condition applied to the experimental units involved in an experiment?
A treatment
Two friends have applied for two different positions in two different departments each has the probability of 0.25 of being selected What is the probability that both of them are selected?
0.25 * 0.25 = 0.0625
What is two examples on how theory of probability is being applied in real situations?
by throwing a coins or dice? maybe...
