 A simple

event is one event.

 A compound

event is an event that
consists of two or more simple
events.
 Two

events that cannot occur at the
same time are called mutually
exclusive.

 If

events can overlap they are
inclusive.
 Mutually
 P(A or B)

Exclusive:
= P(A) + P(B)

 Inclusive:
 P(A or B) =

 P(A and

P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)

B) = probability that both
things will happen
 A card

is randomly selected from a
standard 52-card deck. What is the
probability that it is an ace or a face
card?
 You

roll a six-sided die. What is the
probability of rolling a multiple of 3
or 5?
 You

roll a six-sided die. What is the
probability of rolling an even
number or a 3?
 A card

is randomly selected from a
standard deck. What is the
probability it is a heart or face card?
 You

roll a six-sided die. What is the
probability of rolling a multiple of 3
or a multiple of 2?
 You

roll a six-sided die. What is the
probability of rolling an odd number
or a multiple of 3?
