question 9 of 10
you play two games of golf.
let event ( a ) = you win the first game.
let event ( b ) = you win the second game.
what does ( p(b|a) ) represent?
a. the probability that you win the second game given that you win
the first game
b. the probability that you dont win the second game
c. the probability that you win the first game given that you win the
second game
d. the probability that you win either the first or the second game

Explanation:

In probability, $P(B|A)$ is the notation for conditional probability. The vertical bar "|" means "given". So $P(B|A)$ represents the probability of event $B$ (winning the second game) occurring given that event $A$ (winning the first game) has already occurred.

Answer:

A. The probability that you win the second game given that you win the first game
