Question 1

What does Conditional PMF help us understand?

  • The likelihood of an event regardless of others
  • The relationship between two random variables
  • The total probability of all outcomes

💡 Hint: Focus on the dependency aspect.

Question 2

True or False: P(X = x | Y = y) is determined solely from P(Y = y).

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what you need to calculate a conditional probability.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Two variables have a joint distribution where P(X = 3, Y = 5) = 0.25, and P(Y = 5) = 0.5. Calculate P(X = 3 | Y = 5) and interpret this in a practical scenario.

💡 Hint: Use the Conditional PMF formula!

Question 2

In medical testing, if P(Positive Test | Disease) = 0.9 and the general population probability P(Disease) = 0.01, discuss the implications if P(Positive Test) is found to be significantly different.

💡 Hint: Think about sensitivity and specificity in testing.
