b) Find each of the following probabilities:
Pr(Los Angeles or Orange) =
Pr(Orange or San Diego) =
Pr(Not Orange) =
Pr(Not San Diego) =
Pr(A Male and Los Angeles) =
Pr(A Female and Not San Diego):
Pr(not a Male and not Los Angeles) =
c) Are the events "Female" and "Los Angeles" mutually exclusive? Explain.
