UNION OF TWO EVENTS

A card is drawn from a standard deck. A standard deck contains an

equal number of hearts, diamonds, and spades. Find the probability of
drawing a heart or a 7.
S={hearts, diamonds, spades}
P(H)= ¼
P(7)= 1/13
P(E U F)= P(E) + P(F)- P(E ∩F)

=1/4 + 1/13 – 1/52

=4/13

Therefore, the probability of drawing a heart or a 7 is 4/13
