Abstract

After learning how to determine the probability value for a single random experiment, this chapter gives you the tools for compound random experiments. The probability tree that graphically presents the experiment is defined first, followed by numerous details and laws, leading to the mastery of calculation tricks for an experiment composed of n sub-experiments. 


Keywords: Bayes’ theorem, Conditional probability, Global probability, Total probability law, Tree diagram of probabilities.
