Please write the following learning outcomes in your note books
I will be able to
- Generalize that nearly everything is subject to uncertainty
- discover that probability theory can help me :
- Manage Uncertainty
- Improve my decision making

π
Today, situation across the globe is so uncertain.
Covid-19 has made our days and our lives uncertain.
In such a situation you may adopt either of the following thought processπ
Please write this word in your diary :
dichotomous : (of branching) in which the axis is divided into two branches.

To build
this probabilistic perspective,
you need
appropriate language
and
terminologies.

{Kindly use Probabilistic Perspective to think about the following experiments}
Q1) Experiment: A driver attempts to start a car.
Sample Space : {The car starts, The car does not start }
Are these equally likely outcomes ?
A1) NO π
because ,
the car will a start if number of factors are in place such as (key is available, the person knows how to start, enough petrol, working engine, battery ok, etc..)
the car will not start even if one of the factor is out of place
Q2) Experiment: A player attempts to shoot a basket ball.
Sample Space : {She shoots, She misses}
Are these equally likely outcomes ?
A2) NO π
because ,
she shoots if number of factors are in place such as (her distance from the basket, the force used to throw, the angle at which it is thrown, another player's hindrance in between, her expertise, etc..)
she misses even if one of the factor is out of place
{So do not Blame things to luck in your next game on the field / court}
Q3) Experiment: Answer a true or false question in the paper.
Sample Space : {Get full marks, Get no marks}
Are these equally likely outcomes ?
A3) Yes ✅
because , the question has been framed like that

Good Morning and Thank you Boys π
Ma'am I do not understand what are elementary elements.
ReplyDeleteAre heads and tails two outcomes?
Ma'am does it mean getting only one outcome? Either heads or tails?
DeleteMa'am could you please give an example of case that does not involve having elementary element? i.e., a case where there are two outcomes simultaneously?
Elementary event=an event having only one outcome of the experiment.
Deleteeg: A bag contains an orange, an apple and a mango. Joe takes out a fruit from the bag without looking into it. What is the probability you takes out the (i) Mango? (ii) an apple?
(iii) an orange?
The number of possible outcomes = 3
(i) the number of outcomes favourable to the event Mango = 1
P(mango)= 1/3
Similarly, P(apple) = 1/3
P(orange) = 1/3.
these are elementary events.
