1. You are a contestant on the Wheel of Fun. The spinner contains 4 red panels, 5 yellow panels, a bankrupt panel, 7 blue panels and two free spin panels.
Utilize this given information to calculate the following probabilities:

a. Probability of a spin landing on a red panel.

b. Probability of a spin landing on anything but a blue panel. y that

C. Probability of a spin landing on a yellow or red.

d. Probability of a spin landing on a any non-color panel.
Okay

We have:

4 red panels

5 yellow panels

1 bankrupt panel

7 blue panels

2 free spin panels

for a total of:

4 + 5 +1 + 7 + 2 = 19 panels.

And we can assume that all the panels are equal, so the probability of landing on every single one is the same.

a) Probability of a spin landing on a red panel.

This will be equal to the quotient between the number of red panels (4) and the total number of panels (19)

P = 4/19 = 0.211

b) Probability of a spin landing on anything but a blue panel

There are 7 blue panels and a total of 19 panels.

then 19 - 7 = 12 panels are not blue.

The probability of not landing on a blue panel will be equal to the quotient between the number of panels that are not blue (12) and the total number of panels (19)

P  = 12/19  = 0.632

c)  Probability of a spin landing on a yellow or red.

There are 4 red and 5 yellow ones, so there are 4 + 5 = 9 panels that are either red or yellow.

The probability is computed in the same way as in the above cases, here we have:

P = 9/19 = 0.473

d)  Probability of a spin landing on any non-color panel.

The non-color panels are:

1 bankrupt panel and 2 free spin panels, for a total of 3 non-color panels.

The probability is computed in the same way as above, so we get:

P = 3/19 = 0.158

answer:     true
