i) $$P= \frac { 4} { 4+ 7+ 8} = \frac { 4} { 19} $$ii) $$P= \frac { 8} { 4+ 7+ 8} = \frac { 8} { 19} $$iii) $$P= \frac { 4+ 7} { 4+ 7+ 8} = \frac { 11} { 19} $$iv) $$P= 1- \frac { 8} { 4+ 7+ 8} = \frac { 11} { 19} $$A={drawing a red ball}B={drawing a blue ball}$$A\cap B= \emptyset $$So, they are mutually exclusive
