    Do you know the difference between a dependent event and an independent event? If someone runs a 5 minute mile and someone else runs a 10 minute mile are these two events dependent on each other?
    ::如果有人跑5分钟跑,而有人跑10分钟跑,这两个事件是互相依存的吗?

    In this concept, you will learn to recognize and dependent events.
    ::在此概念中,您将学会识别和依附事件。

    Independent and Dependent Events
    ::独立和独立事件

    When you work with probability , you can think about different events and how these events impact each other. Let’s look at an example.
    ::当您以概率工作时,您可以思考不同的事件以及这些事件相互影响的方式。让我们来举个例子。

    lesson content

    Suppose there are two events:
    ::假设有两件事:

    Event A : Toss 5 on the number cube
    ::事件 A: 在数字立方体上拖移 5

    Event B : Spin blue on the spinner
    ::事件B:在旋盘上旋转蓝色

    The probability of each of these events by itself is easy enough to compute. In general:
    ::每一事件本身的概率都很容易计算出来。

    P (event) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes

    ::P(活动)++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++#+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++#######++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++################+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++#

    If this is the case, then you can write the following ratios for rolling a 5 and spinning blue.
    ::如果情况是这样,那么您可以写下滚动5和旋转蓝色的下列比率。

    P ( 5 ) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P ( 5 ) = 1 6 P (blue) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P (blue) = 1 4

    These two events were performed with a spinner and a number cube. Does event A  affect the probability of event B  in any way? That is, does the number cube landing on 5 affect where the arrow lands in the spinner? If not, then the two events are said to be independent events.
    ::这两个事件都是用一个旋转器和一个数字立方体进行的。事件A是否以任何方式影响事件B的概率?也就是说,数字立方体降落在5上是否影响箭头降落在旋转器中的位置?如果没有,那么这两个事件据说是独立的事件。

    If the outcome of one event has no effect on the outcome of a second event, then the two events are independent events.
    ::如果一个事件的结果对第二个事件的结果没有影响,那么这两个事件是独立的事件。

    Events A  and B  above are independent events. No matter how the number cube turns up, its outcome does not affect the outcome of spinning the spinner.
    ::以上事件A和B是独立的事件。无论数字立方如何出现,其结果都不会影响旋转旋转器的结果。

    Now let’s think about a different kind of example, one where the outcome of one event does impact the outcome of another event.
    ::现在让我们想一个不同的例子,一个事件的结果确实影响到另一个事件的结果的例子。

    A bag has 3 red marbles, 4 blue marbles, and 3 green marbles. Irene pulls 1 green marble out of the bag. Does this change the probability that the next marble Irene pulls out of the bag will be green?
    ::包里有3个红色大理石、4个蓝色大理石和3个绿色大理石。 艾琳从包里拿出了1个绿色大理石。 这是否改变了艾琳从包里拿出下一个大理石的可能性?

    First, find the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes for the first pick from the bag.
    ::首先,从包中找到首选的有利结果的数量和结果的总数。

    #   of favorable outcomes = #   of green marbles = 3 total  #   of outcomes = #   of marbles = 3   red + 4   blue + 3   green = 10

    Next, find the probability of choosing a green marble.
    ::接下来,找到选择绿色大理石的概率。

    P (green) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P (green) = 3 10

    Then, for the second marble, there are now only 9 marbles left in the bag and only 2 of them are green. So the probability of pulling out a green marble for the second marble is now:
    ::第二大理石现在只剩下9大理石了,其中只有2大理石是绿色的。因此,第二大理石可能拔出绿色大理石的概率是:

    P (green) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P (green) = 2 9

    ::P(绿色)+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++%+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++29

    Clearly, the first event affected the outcome of the second event in this situation. So the two events are NOT independent. In other words, they are dependent events.
    ::显然,第一个事件影响着第二个事件的结果。因此这两个事件并不独立。换句话说,它们是依附事件。

    If the outcome of one event has an effect on the outcome of a second event, then the two events are dependent events.
    ::如果一个事件的结果对第二个事件的结果产生影响,那么这两个事件就属于附属事件。

    Sometimes, you have and you have events that overlap and are not mutually exclusive . Two events A  and B  that cannot occur at the same time are mutually exclusive events . can occur at the same time.
    ::有时,你和你有重叠和不相互排斥的事件。 两个不能同时发生的A和B事件是相互排斥的事件。 可以同时发生。

    Events R ( red )  and event T ( top )  are overlapping events or mutually exclusive events because both events share one outcome ( red top ) .
    ::R(red)事件和T(top)事件是重叠事件或相互排斥的事件,因为两个事件都有一个结果(red-top)。

    lesson content

    To calculate the probability of overlapping events, list the sample space and find the favorable events.
    ::要计算重叠事件的概率, 请列出样本空间并找到有利的事件 。

    r e d t o p   blue top red bottom blue bottom

    ::红色蓝色-蓝色-顶层-底蓝色-底部

    The probability of red-top is:
    ::红顶的概率是:

    P ( red top ) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P ( red top ) = 1 4

    ::P(red-top) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++14++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++14+14+14++++14++++++++++++++14+++++++++++++14++++++++++++++++14++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about  the race and the two runners. Two runners are in a race. The first runner runs a 5 minute mile and the second runner runs a 10 minute mile.
    ::早些时候,有人给了你一个赛事和两名跑者的问题。有两名跑者正在比赛中。第一个跑者跑5分钟,第二个跑者跑10分钟。

    The events are independent. The speed of one runner does not impact the speed of another runner.
    ::事件是独立的,一个跑者的速度不会影响另一个跑者的速度。

     

    For a single toss of a number cube, what is the probability of event E ( even )  and event S ( 4 )  both occurring?
    ::对于一个数字立方体的单次托盘,事件E(偶数)和事件S(4)发生的可能性是多少?

    First, identify the overlapping outcomes of both events.
    ::首先,确定这两次活动的重叠结果。

    E ( even ) = 2 , 4 , 6 S ( 4 ) = 4

    ::E(偶数)=2,4,6S(4)=4

    Next, find the total number of outcomes.
    ::接下来,找到结果的总数。

    Total outcomes = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 = 6   total outcomes

    ::结果共计=1,2,3,4,5,6=6

    Then, find the probability of the overlapping events.
    ::然后,找到重叠事件的概率。

    P ( 4 ) = #   of favorable outcomes total  #   of outcomes P ( 4 ) = 1 6

    Identify whether the following events are independent or dependent.
    ::确定以下事件是独立事件还是依赖事件。

    Example 2
    ::例2

    Rolling a 1 and then rolling a 6 on a number cube.
    ::滚1 然后滚6 在数字立方体上滚6

    The answer is these events are independent events because the rolling of a one does not affect the second roll and getting a six.
    ::答案是这些事件是独立事件,因为一个事件的滚动不影响第二卷和获得六份。

    Example 3
    ::例3

    A bag has a red and two blue marbles.
    ::包里有红色和两颗蓝色弹珠

    First, one blue marble is drawn and then replaced.
    ::首先,绘制一个蓝色大理石,然后更换。

    Then, a red one is drawn.
    ::然后,一个红色的画。

    Are these two events dependent or independent?
    ::这两种事件取决于还是独立?

    The answer is these events are independent events because the blue marble was replaced; it does not affect the outcome of drawing of red.
    ::答案是这些事件是独立的事件,因为蓝色大理石被替换;它不影响绘制红色的结果。

    Example 4
    ::例4

    A box contains 5 white and 6 red marbles. What is the probability of successfully drawing, in order, a red marble and then a white marble?
    ::A 框包含 5 个白色和 6 个红色大理石。 成功绘制红色大理石和白色大理石的概率是多少?

    The answer is these events are dependent events because the red marble was not replaced; the number of total outcomes will decrease from 11 to 10 when choosing the white marble.
    ::答案是这些事件是附属事件,因为红色大理石没有被替换;在选择白色大理石时,总结果将从11个减少到10个。
