Answer:

PART A

  • Red: 7/29
  • Blue: 8/29
  • Yellow: 5/29
  • Green: 9/29

PART B

  • Red or blue: 7/29 + 8/29 = 15/29
  • Yellow or green: 5/29 + 9/29 = 14/29
  • Blue or yellow or green: 8/29 + 5/29 + 9/29 = 22/29

Explanation:

In this case where the question is asking or OR and the events are mutually exclusive (Mutually exclusive meaning you can't attain two or three different colors in one pick), the compound probability is the sum of the probability of each component event (Probability of Red OR Blue = P(Red) + P(Blue) = 7/29 + 8/29 = 15/29)
