Question

rita rolls a standard, 6 - sided die. let a be the event that the number she rolls is even. let b be the event that the number she rolls is less than 6. complete the paragraph. the conditional probability of b given a is the probability that the number rita rolls is. the conditional probabili less than 6 given that it is an even number an even number given that it is less than 6 both even and less than 6 either even or less than 6

Explanation:

Conditional probability \( P(B|A) \) is defined as the probability of event \( B \) occurring given that event \( A \) has already occurred. Here, event \( A \) is "the number is even" and event \( B \) is "the number is less than 6". So, \( P(B|A) \) is the probability that the number is less than 6 given that it is an even number.

Answer:

less than 6 given that it is an even number
