When We Make a Probability Tree, We Look at Outcomes

question 23

Essay

When we make a probability tree, we look at outcomes for two different events and draw a diagram from left to right with one event and then the other. Invent a simple example with numbers and clearly show that the order we depict the events in a probability tree does not alter the final probabilities. (Hint: Draw two trees for the same probabilities)
