Question

An experiment with outcomes {s1,s2,s3,s4,s5,s6,s7} is described by the following probability distribution: 

Outcome Probability
s1 0.04
s2 0.2
s3 0.06
s4 0.07
s5 0.34
s6 0.1
s7 0.19

Consider the following events: E = {s1,s2,s7} and F =  {s3,s5,s6}

1) Compute Pr(E) and Pr(F)

2) Compute Pr(E') and Pr(F')

3) Compute Pr(E∩F)

4) Compute Pr(E∪F)
