We all know that, given two events A and B, the probability of the union A U B is given by the formula P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P( AB) where AB represents the intersection of A and B. Most of us even know that

P(A U B U C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - { P(AB) + P(AC) + P(BC) } + P(ABC)

In particular, if the events are independent, it becomes:

1 - P(A U B U C) = 1 - { P(A) + P(B) +…

The two situations discussed here also apply to marketing (not just advertising), and not just using social networks, but other channels such as Google. The insights provided here are based on careful data analysis, and applicable to websites and blogs with a decent amount of content, trying to build or maintain momentum. The problem discussed here is sometimes referred to as marketing mix optimization, with attribution modeling.

In this article, we revisit the most fundamental statistics theorem, talking in layman terms. We investigate a special but interesting and useful case, which is not discussed in textbooks, data camps, or data science classes. This article is part of a series about off-the-beaten-path data science and mathematics, offering a fresh, original and simple perspective on a number of topics. Previous articles in this series can be found…
