Cluster:
Understand independence and conditional probability and use them to interpret data.

Standard:
Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations. For example, compare the chance of having lung cancer if you are a smoker with the chance of being a smoker if you have lung cancer. *

Cluster:
Use the rules of probability to compute probabilities of compound events in a uniform probability model.

Standard:
Find the conditional probability of A given B as the fraction of B’s outcomes that also belong to A, and interpret the answer in terms of the model. *

Cluster:
Use the rules of probability to compute probabilities of compound events in a uniform probability model.

Standard:
Apply the Addition Rule, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B), and interpret the answer in terms of the model. *

Cluster:
Use the rules of probability to compute probabilities of compound events in a uniform probability model.

Standard:
(+) Apply the general Multiplication Rule in a uniform probability model, P(A and B) = P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P(A|B), and interpret the answer in terms of the model. *

Cluster:
Use the rules of probability to compute probabilities of compound events in a uniform probability model.

Standard:
(+) Use permutations and combinations to compute probabilities of compound events and solve problems. *
