p. 138 #11. a) What is the probability that 2 randomly selected people have b-day
on Nov. 27?
b) What is the probability that 2 randomly selected people have same b-day?
A: a) P(b-day of John and Jack on Nov 27) = 1/365 * 1/365 = 1/133225 =
0.00000751
b) P(same birthday) = 365 different DAYS* 1/365*1/365 = 1/ 365

Conditional probability
The conditional probability of the event
A given B is denoted by P(A | B) and
it is the probability that A occurs
knowing that B has occurred already

• 1 subject is selected randomly, find the
probability of a subject being positive, given
that she is pregnant.
P(pos|pregnant) = 80/85=0.941 or
= P(positive and pregnant)
P(pregnant)
