If A and B are mutually exclusive then?

Correct answer: B. P(AandB)=0

  • A. P(AorB) =0
  • B. P(AandB)=0
  • C. P(AnorB)=0
  • D. P(AeitherB)=0

Explanation

Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together, so their intersection is empty and P(A and B) equals zero. Their union need not be zero because either event may still occur.
