  • If you think it through, it should make sense that the probability of pulling one Queen at random from a standard deck is  4 52 or 1 13 , since there are 4 Queens in a standard 52 card deck. How then would you calculate the probability of pulling a Queen OR a King from the same deck?
    ::如果你仔细想一想,那么从标准甲板上随机拉动一名女王的概率应该是452或113,因为标准52牌板上有4个皇后。那么,你将如何计算从同一甲板拉动一名女王或国王的概率?

    Union of Compound Events 
    ::复合活动联盟

    When multiple may occur during a particular experiment , there are a couple of different types of outcomes you may need to consider:
    ::当在特定试验期间可能发生多重情况时,可能需要考虑几种不同类型的结果:

    • Intersection : the probability of both or all of the events you are calculating happening at the same time (less likely).
      ::交点 : 您同时计算的所有事件或同时发生事件的概率( 可能性较小 ) 。
    • Union : the probability of any one of multiple events happening at a given time (more likely).
      ::联盟:在特定时间(更有可能)发生任何一起多事件的概率。

    In this lesson, we will focus on union . Calculating the union is relatively easy, you just add up the individual probabilities of the events:
    ::在这个教训中,我们将集中关注工会。计算工会相对容易,你只是将事件的个人概率加在一起:

    ">

    P ( x   o r   y ) = P ( x ) + P ( y )

    ::P(x 或 y) = P(x)+P是的

    This can also be thought of as:
    ::这也可以认为是:

    P ( x   o r   y ) = ( number of outcomes where   x   is true ) + ( number of outcomes where   y   is true ) total number of possible outcomes

    ::P(x 或 y) = (在x为真的情况下结果数)+(在y为真时结果数) 可能结果总数

    It is really just that simple! It is intuitive also, assuming there is no overlap (which we will consider later), it just makes sense to think that if you have a 20% probability of one thing happening, and a 30% probability of another, then you have a 50% probability of one of the two of them happening during a given experiment.
    ::这其实很简单! 它也是直觉的,假设没有重叠(我们稍后会考虑), 想象一下,如果你有20%发生一件事的概率, 30%发生另一件事情的概率, 那么在特定实验中,你有一个50%发生其中一件的概率。

    Calculating Probability 
    ::计算概率

    1. You are given a bag containing 15 equally sized marbles. You know there are 5 yellow marbles, 5 blue marbles, and 5 green marbles in the bag. What is the statistical probability that you would pull a yellow or green marble out, if you reach in the bag and grab a marble at random?
    ::1. 给您一个装有15个相同大小的大理石的袋子,你知道包里有5个黄色大理石、5个蓝色大理石和5个绿色大理石。

    Recall the formula for the union of simple probabilities:
    ::回顾简单概率结合的公式:

    P ( x   o r   y ) = ( number of outcomes where   x   is true ) + ( number of outcomes where   y   is true ) total number of possible outcomes

    ::P(x 或 y) = (在x为真的情况下结果数)+(在y为真时结果数) 可能结果总数

    In this case, we have:
    ::在这种情况下,我们有:

    P ( y e l l o w   o r   g r e e n ) = 5   y e l l o w   m a r b l e s + 5   g r e e n   m a r b l e s 15   t o t a l   m a r b l e s

    ::P(黄或绿)=5黄色大理石+5绿色大理石+5绿色大理石15

    Which would reduce to:
    ::这将减少:

    P ( y e l l o w   o r   g r e e n ) = 2 3   o r   66.6 6 ¯ %

    ::P(黄绿色)=23或66.66

    2. What is the probability of rolling an odd or even number on a standard six-sided die?
    ::2. 在标准的六方死亡上滚动一个奇数或甚至数字的可能性有多大?

    A standard die has three odd numbers (1, 3, 5) and three even numbers (2, 4, 6). Therefore, the probability of rolling an odd or even number is:
    ::标准死亡有三个奇数(1、3、5)和三个偶数(2、4、6),因此,一个奇数或偶数的滚动概率是:

    P ( o d d   o r   e v e n ) = 3   o d d + 3   e v e n 6   t o t a l = 6 6

    ::P(dd或甚至)=3 奇特+3偶6 总计=66

    Reducing to:
    ::减少:

    P ( o d d   o r   e v e n ) = 1   o r   100 %

    ::P(dd或甚至)=1或100%

    3. If Lawrence is playing with a standard 52-card deck, what is the probability of pulling a 2, a 4, or a 6 out of the deck at random?
    ::3. 如果劳伦斯在玩标准的52卡牌甲板,那么随机拉出2张、4张或6张的概率是多少?

     Let’s solve this one as the total of the individual probabilities. Lawrence’s probability of pulling a 2, 4, or 6 is the same as the union of the probability of each possible outcome :
    ::让我们用个人概率的总和来解决这个问题。 劳伦斯的拉拉2、4或6的概率与每种可能结果概率的结合相同:

    P ( 2 , 4 ,   o r   6 ) = P ( 2 ) + P ( 4 ) + P ( 6 ) = 1 13 + 1 13 + 1 13 = 3 13   o r   23.1 %

    ::P(2、2、4或6)=P(2)+P(4)+P(6)=113+113+113+113=313或23.1%

    Earlier Problem Revisited
    ::重审先前的问题

    It should make sense now that the probability of pulling one Queen at random from a standard deck is  4 52 or 1 13 , since there are 4 Queens in a standard 52 card deck. How then would you calculate the probability of pulling a Queen OR a King from the same deck?
    ::现在应该可以理解的是,任意从标准甲板上拉走一名女王的概率是452或113,因为标准52牌牌牌上有4个皇后。 那么,如何计算从同一甲板拉动一名女王或国王的概率?

    Remember that the union of multiple probabilities is simple the total sum of all of the individual probabilities:
    ::记住多种概率的结合 简单简单于所有个体概率的总和:

    P ( Q u e e n   o r   K i n g ) = 4   Q u e e n s + 4   K i n g s 52   C a r d s = 8 52   o r   4 26   o r   2 13 = 15.4 %

    ::P(女王或国王)=4 皇后+4 Kings52卡=852或426或213=15.4%

    P ( 2   o r   3   o r   6 ) = 1  number  6 + 1  number  2 + 1  number  3 6  total numbers = 3 6   o r   1 2   o r   50 %
