How does probability work?

Probability is the likelihood something will happen as opposed to another factor. If you were to toss a coin, the probability of it landing on heads is 1/2. If you toss it again, the probability of getting tails is 1/2.Sometimes one result can affect the next one, other times it cannot,The result affects the next if: You have 3 red marbles and 3 blue. You pull out a blue one and do not replace it. It affects is as it could not be chosen again so the probability of another blue goes down 1, as well as the mail number.It would not if: You do the same as above, but DO replace the removed marble. This is because it can be chosen again, and the Probability and the overall amount stays the same.


Why might waves from the same earthquake effect one area more than it will effect another area?

Well it all depends wher the epicenter is. Wherever that is the earthquake will be the strongest but still beable to be felt in other areas.


How are experimental probability and theoretical probability the same?

They are methods of obtaining the probability of an event.


What is the probability of P z-0.41 using the standard normal distribution?

See the related link for the area at 0.41 (same as -0.41) which is 0.1591. This area, which is the probability, is from minus infinity to -0.41. If you want the area from -0.41 to plus infinity you need to take 1 - 0.1591 which is 0.8409.


How can theoretical probability and experimental probability be the same?

yes
