What is the probability of selecting a student who is from the south or whose family owns a computer


Question: What is the probability of selecting a student who is from the south or whose family owns a computer when the student was in the eighth grade? Using the probability rule [P(E1 or E2) = P(E1) + P(E2) - P(E1 land E2)], calculate the probability.

Weinberg and Abramowitz (2008) explored computer usage of families with and eighth grader in these regions. The following crosstabulation gives us data:
