It details the formula for calculating probabilities of specific outcomes, exemplified by drawing two aces in a poker hand. The page also outlines the conditions for applying the hypergeometric distribution and includes an example of calculating the probability of selecting gumdrops from a mix of candies.

    Similar reasoning tells us both that \[P(B)=P(A\cap B)+P(A^c\cap B)\] and that \[A\cup B=\left(A\cap B^c\right)\cup\left(A\cap B\right)\cup\left(A^c\cap B\right)\] is a decomposition of \(A\cup B\) in...Similar reasoning tells us both that \[P(B)=P(A\cap B)+P(A^c\cap B)\] and that \[A\cup B=\left(A\cap B^c\right)\cup\left(A\cap B\right)\cup\left(A^c\cap B\right)\] is a decomposition of \(A\cup B\) into disjoint pieces, so that \[P(A\cup B)=P(A\cap B^c)+P(A\cap B)+P(A^c\cap B)\ .\] Combining all of these equations, we conclude that \[\begin{aligned} P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B) &=P(A\cap B)+P(A\cap B^c)+P(A\cap B)+P(A^c\cap B)-P(A\cap B)\\ &= P(A\cap B^c)+P(A\cap B)+P(A^c\cap B) + P(A\cap B)-P(A\cap B)…

It discusses sampling methods and introduces visual tools such as contingency tables, probability trees, and Venn diagrams. These tools assist in organizing data and clarifying relationships between events, enhancing the understanding of intersections, unions, complements, and conditional probabilities.
