Events A and B are independent if
P ( AB )  P ( A) P ( B ).
 A, B independent implies:

P( B )  P( AB  AB )  P( AB)  P( AB )  P( A) P( B )  P( AB )

Some Properties of Independence
The event of zero probability is independent of
every other event
 Let P(A)=0,
 Then:
AB  A
P( AB)  P( A)  0  P( AB)  0,
 Thus: P(AB) = P(A) P(B) = 0
Other independent events cannot be ME
 Since:
P( A)  0, P( B )  0
P ( AB)  0.

Example
Three independent parallel switches
Each switch remains closed with
probability p.
(a) Find the probability of receiving an
input signal at the output.
Solution
 Let Ai = “Switch Si is closed” and R = “input signal is received at the
output”. Then
P( Ai )  p, i  1  3.
P( Ai Aj )  P( Ai ) P( Aj ); P( A1 A2 A3 )  P( A1 ) P( A2 ) P( A3 ).
R  A1  A2  A3.
P( R )  P( A1  A2  A3 )  1  (1  p )3  3 p  3 p 2  p 3.

Example – continued
Another Solution
 Since any event and its complement form a trivial partition,
P( R )  P( R | A1 ) P( A1 )  P( R | A1 ) P( A1 ).
P( R | A1 )  1,
P( R | A1 )  P( A2  A3 )  2 p  p2
 Thus:
P( R)  p  (2 p  p 2 )(1  p)  3 p  3 p 2  p 3 ,
Note:The events A1, A2, A3 do not form a partition, since they are not ME.
Moreover, P( A1 )  P( A2 )  P( A3 )  1.

(b) Find the probability that switch S1 is open given that
an input signal is received at the output.

(1, F1, P1) and (2, F2, P2).
 Two models’ elementary events: 1, 2
 How to define the combined trio (, F, P)?
  = 1 2
 Every elementary event  in  is of the form  = (, ).
 Events: Any subset A  B of  such that AF1 and B  F2
 F : all such subsets A  B together with their unions and
complements.

Repeated Trials
 In this model, The events A  2 and 1  B are such that
P( A  2 )  P1 ( A), P(1  B)  P2 ( B).
 Since
( A  2 )  (1  B)  A  B,
the events A  2 and 1  B are independent for any A  F1 and B  F2.
 So, for all A  F1 and B  F2
P( A  B)  P( A  2 )  P(1  B)  P1 ( A) P2 ( B)
 Now, we’re done with definition of the combined model.

Example: Day-trading strategy
 A box contains n randomly numbered balls (not necessarily 1 through n)
 m = np (p<1) of them are drawn one by one by replacement
 The drawing continues until a ball is drawn with a number larger than the
first m numbers.
 Determine the fraction p to be initially drawn, so as to maximize the
probability of drawing the largest among the n numbers using this
strategy.

Day-trading strategy: Solution
 Let
X k  (k  1) stdrawn ball has the largest number among:
all n balls,
the first k balls is in the group of first m balls, k > m.
 X k = A  B, where
A = “largest among the first k balls is in the group of first

 This strategy can be used to “play the stock market”.
 Suppose one gets into the market and decides to stay up to 100 days.
 When to get out?
 According to the solution,
when the stock value exceeds the maximum among the first 37 days.
 In that case the probability of hitting the top value over 100 days for the stock is also about
