Explanation / Answer

8 a) No the events are not mutually exclusive

The probability that cartoon has a puncture and smashed corner is 0.002.

Option D is right

b) probability of having a puncture or smashed corner is

P(A U B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(A & B) = 0.03+0.08-0.002 = 0.108.

a) probability of queen or five is 1/13 + 1/13 = 2/13 = 0.153

b) probability of queen or five or ace is 1/13 + 1/13 + 1/13 = 3/13 = 0.2307

c) probaility of ten or heart is 1/13 +1/4 - 1/52 = 16/52 = 4/13 = 0.3076
