8、simplified to P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)Can be extended to any number of mutually exclusive events.10Copyright 2019,2015,2012,Pearson Education,Inc.Example:Using the Addition Rule to Find Probabilities 1.You select a card from a standard deck.Find the probability that the card is a 4 or an ace.Solution:The
