Conditional Probability
If A and B are two events in our probability space, then P(A|B) is defined as
the conditional probability of A, given that B has already occured.
.
Formula
..

P(A|B) =
P(A ∩ B)

has been administered to the entire population, but unfortunately the test is not
completely reliable. If an individual has the disease, there is a probability 0.98 of
getting a positive result, and if an individual does not have the disease, there is a

tested.
Using a probability tree, find in terms of p, the probability that

A particular diease infects a proportion p of the population of a town. A medical test
has been administered to the entire population, but unfortunately the test is not
completely reliable. If an individual has the disease, there is a probability 0.98 of
getting a positive result, and if an individual does not have the disease, there is a
probability of 0.08 of getting a positive result. An individual is chosen at random and
tested.
Using a probability tree, find in terms of p, the probability that
(a) the individual has the disease given that the result is positive.
(b) the test will lead to a wrong conclusion.

During the monsoon season, in a particular country, each day has a probability
of 0.5 of seeing rain. The probability that there is no traffic jam at a specific
road junction X in general is 0.32. However, on a rainy day, the probability of a
traffic jam there is 0.8.
Find the probability that on a randomly chosen day,
(i) there is no jam at the road junction X, given that it does not rain,
(ii) there is a traffic jam at the road junction X or it does not rain, or both,
(iii) it rains, given that there is no traffic jam at the road junction X.

If an individual has the disease, there is a probability 0.98 of getting a positive result, and if an individual does not have the disease, there is a probability of 0.08 of getting a positive result. An individual is chosen at random and tested. Using a probability tree, find in terms of p, the probability that (a) the individual has the disease given that the result is positive. (b) the test will lead to a wrong conclusion. (b) P(wrong conclusion) = P(D, A′ ) + P(D′ , A) = 0.02p + (1 − p)0.08 = 0.08 - 0.06p c⃝ 2015 Math Academy www.MathAcademy.sg 34
  • 35. . Example (4) .. . During the monsoon season, in a particular country, each day has a probability of 0.5 of seeing rain. The probability that there is no traffic jam at a specific road junction X in general is 0.32. However, on a rainy day, the probability of a traffic jam there is 0.8. Find the probability that on a randomly chosen day, (i) there is no jam at the road junction X, given that it does not rain, (ii) there is a traffic jam at the road junction X or it does not rain, or both, (iii) it rains, given that there is no traffic jam at the road junction X.
