Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bayes' theorem is used to compute the posterior probabilities, which are updated probabilities based on new evidence or information. The prior probabilities are the initial probabilities before any new information is taken into account, and the union of events refers to the probability of either one event or another occurring, which is not directly related to Bayes' theorem.
