What is the probability that a study participant is male and born color-blind?
--------------
P(male and color-blind) = P(color-blind|male)*P(male)= 0.08*0.52 = 0.0416
===============================================================================
What is the probability that a study participant is male or born color-blind?
P(blind or male) = P(blind)+P(male)-P(blind and male)
= 0.085 + 0.52 - 0.0416
= 0.5634
