Hi All,
I'm currently in a grad course with a nice complement of stats which we have been tasked to learn ourselves. Having some difficulties understanding joint probabilities. Specifically, I have a problem where we have 3 possible outcomes with probabilities p1=0.4, p2=0.1 and p3=0.5. If we run 4 trials and let X and Y be the number of trials that result in p1 or p2.
what kind of PD can I use to represent this problem? I need to know if these are independant, the covariance and correlation. any direction would be greatly appreciated.
thanks for your time!
