Can someone give an example of a type of Probability question that shows up..doesn't have to be exact, just to get a rough idea...
Will they ask:

P(W or C) = ?

P(T and 3) = ?
With a given table, of course.

Or are they mainly word problems?

Expect both types of questions in all formats. Given X green marbles, Y yellow marbles, and Z red marbles, what is the probability that Johnny will draw 1 red and 1 green? 1 yellow followed by 1 red? etc...

With that concave down looking thing?

You'll see more word problems that actual straight-up format like that, though you should review the union and intersection symbols.

You can still review that as word problems are solved like those problems using that convoluted language of math.😉
