1. Let's make a diagram:

In the class, 6+3+2= 11 students have a pet, either a cat or a dog

Therefore, the probability that a student chosen randomly from class has a cat or a dog is:

$(11)/(22)\rightarrow(1)/(2)=0.5$

2. Let's take a look at the diagram of the situation:

Out of 29 students, 5 are female and have an A.

Therefore, the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class is a female who has an A is:

$(5)/(29)\rightarrow0.17$

3. Let's take a look at the diagram of the situation:

There are 18-4= 14 students with a pet, either a cat or a dog. Therefore, the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class has a cat or a dog is:

$(14)/(18)\rightarrow(7)/(9)=0.78$

4. Let's take a look at the diagram of the situation:

There are 9+8= 17 males in the class. Therefore, the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class is a male is:
