Final
exam
Practice Problems:
Here are some problems from the ends of chapters in the book that deal
with the
material covered since Exam 3.
Naturally, the final exam is cumulative, and all of the semester's work
will be
represented on it.
Going over your quizzes, the three in-class exams, practice problems
for them,
and so on is plenty to cover that material;
therefore this list covers only course content that has not yet
appeared on
exams.
Conditional probability, independence, tree diagrams, Bayes' theorem
