7-5 Compound Events
A simple event is an event that describes a single
outcome. A compound event is an event made up of
two or more simple events. Mutually exclusive
events are events that cannot both occur in the same
trial of an experiment. Rolling a 1 and rolling a 2 on
the same roll of a number cube are mutually exclusive
events.

Example 1A: Finding Probabilities of Mutually
Exclusive Events
A group of students is donating blood during a
blood drive. A student has a
having type O blood and a
probability of
probability of
having type A blood.
Explain why the events “type O” and “type A”
blood are mutually exclusive.
A person can only have one blood type.

Exclusive Events
A group of students is donating blood during a

probability of
probability of
having type A blood.
What is the probability that a student has type O
or type A blood?
P(type O  type A) = P(type O) + P(type A)

Check It Out! Example 1a
Each student cast one vote for senior class
president. Of the students, 25% voted for Hunt,
20% for Kline, and 55% for Vila. A student from
the senior class is selected at random.
Explain why the events “voted for Hunt,” “voted
for Kline,” and “voted for Vila” are mutually
exclusive.
Each student can vote only once.

Each student cast one vote for senior class
president. Of the students, 25% voted for Hunt,
20% for Kline, and 55% for Vila. A student from
the senior class is selected at random.
What is the probability that a student voted for
Kline or Vila?
P(Kline  Vila) = P(Kline) + P(Vila)
= 20% + 55% = 75%

7-5 Compound Events
Inclusive events are events that have one or more
outcomes in common. When you roll a number cube,
the outcomes “rolling an even number” and “rolling a
prime number” are not mutually exclusive. The number
2 is both prime and even, so the events are inclusive.
Holt McDougal Algebra 2
7-5 Compound Events
There are 3 ways to roll an even number, {2, 4, 6}.
There are 3 ways to roll a prime number, {2, 3, 5}.
The outcome “2” is counted twice when outcomes are
added (3 + 3) . The actual number of ways to roll an
even number or a prime is 3 + 3 – 1 = 5. The concept
of subtracting the outcomes that are counted twice
leads to the following probability formula.

Example 2A: Finding Probabilities of Compound
Events
Find the probability on a number cube.
rolling a 4 or an even number
P(4 or even) = P(4) + P(even) – P(4 and even)
4 is also an even number.

Example 2B: Finding Probabilities of Compound
Events
Find the probability on a number cube.
rolling an odd number or a number greater than 2
P(odd or >2) = P(odd) + P(>2) – P(odd and >2)
There are 2 outcomes where
the number is odd and
greater than 2.

Example 3: Application
Of 1560 students surveyed, 840 were seniors and
630 read a daily paper. The rest of the students
were juniors. Only 215 of the paper readers were
juniors. What is the probability that a student
was a senior or read a daily paper?

Step 1 Use a Venn diagram.
Label as much information as you know. Being a
senior and reading the paper are inclusive events.

Example 3 Continued
Step 2 Find the number in the overlapping region.
Subtract 215 from 630. This is the number of senior
paper readers, 415.
Step 3 Find the probability.
P(senior  reads paper)
= P(senior) + P(reads paper) – P(senior  reads paper)
The probability that the student was a senior or read
the daily paper is about 67.6%.

Step 2 Find the number in the overlapping region.
Subtract 28 from 61. This is the number of hair
stylings and manicures, 33.
Step 3 Find the probability.
P(hair  manicure) =
P(hair) + P(manicure) – P(hair  manicure)
The probability that a customer had a hair styling or
manicure is 77.5%.

Recall from Lesson 11-2 that the complement of an
event with probability p, all outcomes that are not in
the event, has a probability of 1 – p. You can use the
complement to find the probability of a compound
event.

Example 4 Application
Each of 6 students randomly chooses a butterfly
from a list of 8 types. What is the probability
that at least 2 students choose the same
butterfly?
P(at least 2 students choose same) = 1 – P(all choose different)
Use the complement.
Holt McDougal Algebra 2

Example 4 Continued
P(at least 2 students choose same) = 1 – 0.0769 ≈ 0.9231
The probability that at least 2 students choose the
same butterfly is about 0.9231, or 92.31%.
