    1-A company has three machines B1, B2, and B3 for making 1 k resistors. It has
    been observed that 80% of resistors produced by B1 are within 50 of the nominal
    value. Machine B2 produces 90% of resistors within 50 of the nominal value. The
    percentage for machine B3 is 60%. Each hour, machine B1 produces 3000 resistors,
    B2 produces 4000 resistors, and B3 produces 3000 resistors. All of the resistors are
    mixed together at random in one bin and packed for shipment. What is the probability
    that the company ships a resistor that is within 50 of the nominal value?
    2-Suppose that we have two bags each containing black and white balls. One bag contains three times as many white balls as blacks. The other bag contains three times as many black balls as white. Suppose we choose one of these bags at random. For this bag we select five balls at random, replacing each ball after it has been selected. The result is that we find 4 white balls and one black. What is the probability that we were using the bag with mainly white balls?

    hi, thank you for the video. in 18:39 (problem 6) I am not sure how are these events are dependent on each other? they seem pretty independent to me. Same goes to problem 5, how are these events independent if they share the outcome "3"... Sorry I am struggling with understanding this but I do understand the calculation.

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Faisal Alfaiz I think you are confusing the concept of dependent vs. independent with overlapping vs. mutually exclusive. When you are trying to judge whether events are independent, you are not meant to use your intuition to figure it out. The definition is based on the calculation. You are just meant to do the calculation and trust the result.

    For question 1, is it should be a conditional probability problem? Let's define A=winner win the gold medal and B=winner from the United States, my understanding is that the question is asking P(A|B).
    P(A)=301/928=0.324; P(B)=97/928=0.105; P(A and B)=39/928=0.042. Therefore, P(A|B)=P(A and B)/P(B)=0.4.
    Please correct me, thank you!

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Notice that your answer (0.4) and my answer (0.4021) are very close. The bottom line is that your answer is a tiny bit off because you are rounding and I am not. You say that P(B)=97/928 = 0.105, but it does not because 97/928=0.104525862… You say that P(A and B)=39/928=0.042 but it does not because 39/928=0.042025862… Let’s do the problem using your method, but without rounding.
      P(A|B)=P(A and B)/P(B)
      P(A|B)=(39/928)/(97/928)
      P(A|B)=(39/928)*(928/97)
      P(A|B)=(39/97)
      P(A|B)=0.402061856…
      P(A|B) is about 0.4021 or 40.21%
      I think the method that I used in the video is a lot easier though.

I fear that a general explanation here would be more confusing than the video was. However, something very specific is often doable. :-)

      I don't actually know a set of rules for conditional probability. When I see a problem, I can figure out how to solve it and I can explain how I did it, but for conditional probability, I don't think in terms of rules.

  • @2012daffyduck
    @2012daffyduck 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    This can't be right. (@ 1:30) you state the P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) and you also state that P(A|B)=P(A and B)/P(B) which is the same as P(A|B) = (P(A)*P(B))/P(B) the P(B)'s cancel and you get P(A|B) = P(A); this is not correct.

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The first formula is for independent events. The second formula is for conditional probability. You can't substitute one formula into the other because they are each used under different circumstances. If you give me an actual problem, I can explain which formula we use and how we use it.

  • @richardclark4383
    @richardclark4383 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a conceptual problem with the independent vs. dependent examples: Two consecutive rolls of a fair die (or a single roll of two fair dice) should be independent no matter what. However, whether the result of the second roll can satisfy both conditions is dependent on the conditions stated in the first event. I'm not sure how to reconcile these two views.

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Can you give me a problem or two quoted from a textbook or at least a teacher illustrating the contradiction you are trying to reconcile. When it comes to probability, it's all about the details. Your initial question is too vague. Let's nail it down with some concrete examples.

    • @banshee511
      @banshee511 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sure, I was referring to 12:00 and onwards in this video. So for instance, the intersection between 5. These cannot exist simultaneously, so the question poses two disjoint outcomes, which are not independent. However, the dice rolls that produced them are independent events, since the outcome of one roll has no effect on the outcome of the second roll.

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Here is where I believe your mistake is. You are saying that 5 cannot happen simultaneously. However, you go on to explain that there are two dice (or two rolls). If there are two dice, one could be 5. Therefore the two events CAN exist simultaneously. The two events are independent.
      On the other hand, imagine that you only have one die and you only get one roll. Event A is rolling 5. Since we only have one die and one roll, these events are mutually exclusive (they cannot both happen). In this case Event A and Event B are not independent (AKA dependent).
      Even though there is a connection, do not make the mistake of simply thinking mutually exclusive = dependent, and not mutually exclusive = independent. They are two separate concepts that should be thought of individually. Here is a helpful video (not mine): th-cam.com/video/0Vqmkpr1grA/w-d-xo.html

  • @geishelvalverde5405
    @geishelvalverde5405 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Question. Why are you dividing by 100 and 8, etc. on problem 2?

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      (I think you meant problem 3 so I will answer based on that.) Probability can be written in three ways: fraction, decimal and percent. In this video I tried to show the answer in all three forms. For example: 2/3 = .6667 = 66.67%. If you want your answer as a decimal or a percent, you don't have to divide by 100, 8, etc. You can just divide the two numbers you have like 1600/2400 = .6667 = 66.67%. However, if you want to see the probability as a fraction, you need to reduce the fraction. You know for example that 6/10 reduces to 3/5; I divided the numerator and denominator by 2. Well, 1600/2400 can be reduced in a similar way. The 00 and the end of the numerator and denominator tells me that they are both divisible by 100. If you divide both by 100, you get 16/24 (you basically cross out the zeros). Again, I am just reducing the fraction. Now I need to reduce 16/24. Both numbers are divisible by 2, they are also divisible by 4 and 8. It is quickest to divide by the biggest number you can, so I choose to divide the numerator and denominator by 8. This gives me 2/3.This is the faction form of the probability we were looking for. I just divided by 100 and then 8 in order to reduce the fraction 1600/2400 down to 2/3.

    wouldn't the probability of A and B should be 1/5? because A has 3 events (1,3,5) and B has 2 (3,6). If not, can you explain why is it 1/6?

    • @MrHelpfulNotHurtful
      @MrHelpfulNotHurtful  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Event A = rolling an odd number
      Event B = rolling a 3 or a 6
      Therefore Event A AND B = (rolling an odd number) AND (rolling 3 or 6) at the same time.
      The only way to roll an odd number AND roll a 3 or 6 is to roll a 3.
      Since there is only 1 winning value out of a total of 6 numbers on the cube, your chances are 1 out of 6 or 1/6.
