Whatis a multivariate probability
distribution?
Probabilities involving multiple with
leach
events a distribution occurring together, i.e.
the probability ofthe intersection of events.

* joint probability
distribution.
It'slike calculating multiple individual probabilities simultaneously.
Where would multivariate distributions be used?
When we wantto investigate thatconsist
events ofmultiple individual events
occuring together.
