1. Two events are said to be mutually exclusive if they cannot occur at the same time( If one
event occur, then the other event cannot)
2. If two events A and B are mutually exclussive, then
3. Eg :
a. Munira travels by bus and by car to school
b. To obtain head and tail when a coin is tossed
c. A ball drawn from a bag are red and blue
4. Two events, A and B, are said to be EXHAUSTIVE if their union is the sample space.
5. Eg :
The spinner is spun. Given that
A = event of getting an odd number
B = event of getting a number that is less than 2
C = event of getting an even number
Determine whether each of the following pairs of events are mutually exclusive or
exhuastive
a) A and B b) B and C c) A and C
