Probability Formulas
1. The basic probability formula is given by:
$$P(E) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}$$
This formula finds the likelihood of an event $E$ occurring.
2. If the outcomes are equally likely, this formula applies directly.
3. For the complement of an event $E$, the probability is:
$$P(E^c) = 1 - P(E)$$
where $E^c$ is the event that $E$ does not occur.
4. For the union of two events $A$ and $B$, the probability formula is:
$$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$$
where $A \cap B$ is the event both $A$ and $B$ occur.
5. For two independent events $A$ and $B$, the probability of both occurring is:
$$P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)$$
6. For conditional probability, the probability of $A$ given $B$ is:
$$P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$$
These formulas cover fundamental concepts in O Level probability.
