Week 1 (1-8)
‘’Calculate the (estimated) marginal probabilities 6.2 6.16, 6.17 181
for …..’’
Marginal probabilities is computed by adding across rows or down columns and divided
by all values.
‘’Calculate the joint probabilities and the expected 6.3 6,27, 6.28, 6.52, 181
frequencies for all possible combinations’’. 6.56
Assuming that the null hypothesis is true then events A and B are independent. Then
calculate: P(A & B) = P(A) x P(B). To calculate frequencies the probability should be
multiplied with all values.
