A car dealer has a wide variety of styles and colors on its lot, and there are enough cars on the lot that the 5% rule is satisfied.

50% are SUV’s, 40% are sedans, and 10% are pickup trucks.

30% are dark blue, 40% are dark green, 10% are white, and 20% are yellow.

Assume that colors are distributed across each class of car in the same percentages. Answer each question as a probability, rounding to the nearest integer.

Suppose a vehicle is picked at random.

1.What is the probability that it is a dark colored SUV or a dark colored sedan?

2.What is the probability that it is a light colored sedan or a light colored pickup?

3.What is the probability that it is not a blue suv, a green sedan, or a yellow pickup?

4.What is the probability that it is dark green or that it is a sedan?

***Suppose two vehicles are picked at random. Since the 5% rules is satisfied, we can assume the two selections are independent.

5.What is the probability that one is dark colored and one is light colored?

6.What is the probability that one is a dark colored SUV and the other is not dark colored?
