Basic Probability The Multiplication Rule
>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=k-rvcvtsV2k
An introduction to the multiplication rule. (I assume the viewer has an understanding of conditional probability and independence, but I do a very brief review of those concepts.) I introduce the multiplication rule for two events, work through a simple example, then discuss the multiplication rule for 3 events and how it generalizes to any number of events. I end with an example using the multiplication rule to find the probability of a 3 way intersection. • Canadian demographic information is based on Statistics Canada numbers found here: • https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/... • 0:18 Brief review of conditional probability and independence. • 1:39 Multiplication rule for two events • 2:49 Simple urn example • 4:32 Cautionary example • 6:43 Multiplication rule for 3 events • 7:35 Example involving Canadian demographics
