Contextual factors in events management refers to different characteristics that can play into the way that events are conceived, planned or delivered. These characteristics can impact the success or failure of an event and therefore need to be taken in consideration throughout the events planning process. They can be categorised into six main areas including social, environmental, legal, political, physical, technological and organisational. Using The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras (SGLMG) as
Question 1: Sample space: a list of all possible outcomes of the random experiment Event: a collection or set of one or more simple events in a sample space Probability of an event: the sum of the probabilities of the simple events Random experiment: an action or process that leads to one of several possible outcomes The first step in the process of assigning probabilities is to produce a list of the outcomes. The list of outcomes must be exhaustive, which means all possible outcomes must be
According to the Investopedia, “When an individual erroneously believes that the onset of a certain random event is less likely to happen following an event or a series of events. This line of thinking is incorrect because past events do not change the probability that certain events will occur in the future.” Gambler’s Fallacy is about our incorrect thinking of predicting what will happen next by the events happened before or the previous probability. For example, I did a coin toss for 10 times and I got
cause chaos. Another reason why people might say that America is an improbable idea is because, the idea of numerous groups of people coming together into one country might be thought of as disorder but in reality, America succeeds through devastating events of terrorism and common religious beliefs, for the majority of the people, despite being an “improbable idea.” America succeeds through common religious beliefs of citizens. In Lincoln’s second inaugural address, he states that the majority of American
and it is important to ask the rate of false positives for diagnostic tests. People must know how false positive rate compares to the true prevalence of disease, and when assessing test results need to know if u, r in a high-risk group. From the event, it is obvious that the fallacy ignores false positive rate.

Introduction- Probability is the measure of the likeliness that an event will occur. Probability theory is the branch of mathematics concerned with probability, the analysis of random phenomena. The central objects of probability theory are random variables, stochastic processes, and events. If an individual coin toss or the roll of dice is considered to be a random event, then if repeated many times the sequence of random events will exhibit certain patterns, which can be studied and predicted.
because the questions are independent of each other. 6. Explain the difference between independent and dependent events. Dependent events are linked to another event, while independent events are single events. 7. Provide an example of experimental probability and explain why it is considered experimental. Experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of times the event occurs to the total number of trials. Example: Patrick flipped a number cube 40 times. A 5 appeared 10 times
4. Probability of recurrence: In the present study, three stochastic models (Weibull, Gamma and Lognormal) have been used for the estimation of probability of earthquake recurrence in Gujarat region of India which was rocked by the great earthquake in 2001. The earthquake data of the region has only five recurrence intervals of earthquakes magnitude ≥ 6 for the period of study, from 1819 to 2001, and is listed in Table 1. The estimated mean, standard deviation and aperiodicity (equivalent to the
