Definition
 Compound Event
Any event combining 2 or more simple
events
 Notation
P(A or B) = P (event A occurs or event B
occurs or they both occur)

Compound Event
General Rule
When finding the probability that event A
occurs or event B occurs, find the total
number of ways A can occur and the
number of ways B can occur, but find the
total in such a way that no outcome is
counted more than once.

Compound Event
Formal Addition Rule
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
where P(A and B) denotes the probability that A and B
both occur at the same time.

Compound Event
Formal Addition Rule
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
where P(A and B) denotes the probability that A and B
both occur at the same time.
Intuitive Addition Rule
To find P(A or B), find the sum of the number of ways
event A can occur and the number of ways event B can
occur, adding in such a way that every outcome is
counted only once. P(A or B) is equal to that sum,
divided by the total number of outcomes.

Events A and B are

Are

mutually
exclusive
?
Yes
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)
No
P(A or B) = P(A)+ P(B) - P(A and B)

Complementary Events
P(A) and P(A)
are
mutually exclusive
All simple events are either in A or A.
P(A) + P(A) = 1

Rules of Complementary Events

P(A)
= 1 - P(A)
P(A) = 1 - P(A)

Examples
1) A restaurant has 3 pieces of apple pie, 5 pieces of
cherry and 4 pieces of pumpkin pie in its dessert case.
If a customer selects a piece of pie what is the
probability that it is cherry or pumpkin?
Events are mutually exclusive
P(Cherry or Pumpkin)
= P(Cherry) + P(Pumpkin)
= 5/12 + 4/12 = 9/12 = 3/4.

21
Examples
1) A single card is selected from a standard deck of cards.
What is the probability that it is a king or club?
Events are not mutually exclusive
P(King or Club) = P(King) + P(Club) – P(King and Club)
= 4/52 + 13/52 - 1/52 = 16/52 = 4/13.
