2. Algebra of Events

A' = S - A

A ∪ B

A ∩ B

A - B = A ∩ B'

4. Axiomatic Approach to Probability

P(E) ≥ 0

P(S) = 1

P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B)

P(φ) = 0

Axiomatic Approach to Probability

For any event E, P(E) ≥ 0.

P(S) = 1.

Probability of Equally Likely Outcomes

For equally likely outcomes, P(ωi) = 1/n where n is the number of sample points.

If n(S) = n and n(E) = m, then P(E) = m/n.
