    Study Notes

    Confidence Intervals

    • A 95% confidence interval estimates the range where the true population proportion is likely to fall.
    • Calculation typically involves sample proportion, standard error, and Z-scores associated with desired confidence level.

    Probability with Dice

    • To find the probability of rolling a 5 on the first die, given that the sum of two dice is 9 or greater, consider valid combinations.
    • Valid combinations for a sum of 9 or greater include (5,4), (6,3), (7,2), (8,1), (4,5), (3,6), (2,7), (1,8) and so forth.

    Combinations of Cooking Time

    • Total combinations factor in various cooking times, temperatures, and oils.
    • Possible combinations formula: number of temperatures x number of cooking times x number of oils.
    • For parameters: 3 temperatures, 4 cooking times, and 3 types of oil results in 36 unique combinations.

    Probability of Drawing from Urns

    • Probability of selecting an urn influences the likelihood of drawing a red marble.
    • For Urn A (1/3), Urn B (1/2), Urn C (1/6), calculation for a red marble requires knowing how many red marbles are in each urn.

    Conditional Probability of Dice

    • The probability of getting a 5 on the first die follows specific conditions when the total is at least 9.
    • Valid scenarios must be analyzed to determine what fraction of total outcomes produces a 5 on the first die.
