8. The formula for the probability of two non-disjoint events A and B is P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) - .
9. A bag contains 20 marbles: 8 are red, 6 are blue, and 6 are green. 4 of the red marbles have stripes, and 3 of the blue marbles have stripes. None of the green marbles have stripes. What is the probability of drawing a red marble or a striped marble?
