We’ll now discuss something called Bayes’ Theorem. Bayes' Theorem, by definition, provides a way to revise and update probabilities as you gain more information. It allows you to determine the probability of event B occurring given that event A has occurred and is denoted P(B | A):P(B | A) = P(A | B) * P(B) / P(A)When flipping a coin twice, what is the probability of getting two heads in a row given that you know at least one flip results in a head? The Bayes’ equation for this problem is already provided below. Select the best answer.P(2H | 1H) = P(1H | 2H) * P(2H) / P(1H)

Probability is a measure of how likely an event is to occur. The probability of a certain event occurring is defined as the number of ways the certain event can occur or the number of favourable outcomes, divided by the total number of possible outcomes.If we flip a coin once, the probability of it landing on heads is 1/2. 1 being the favourable outcome (H) and 2 being all possible outcomes (H, T). We can write this out like so:P(1H) = ½When you flip a coin twice, the possible outcomes are: HH, HT, TH, and TT. If you flip a coin twice, what’s the probability of obtaining at least one head? Select the best answer.

We are given that P(A | B) = 0.6 and P(A) = 0.9. Since P(A | B) ≠ P(A), the occurrence of event B changes the probability that event A will occur. This implies that A and B are events.

You flip a coin twice.What is the probability of getting tails and then getting heads?Simplify your answer and write it as a fraction or whole number.

You shoot a basketball twice.Let event A = You make the first shot.Let event B = You make the second shot.What does P(B|A) represent?A.The probability that you make the second shot, given that you make the first shotB.The probability that you don't make the second shotC.The probability that you make the first shot, given that you make the second shotD.The probability that you make either the first or the second shot
