Question

Determine whether the following event is mutually exclusive or not mutually exclusive.

Choosing a student who is a history major or a business major from a nearby university to participate in a research study. (Assume that each student only has one major.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both A and B are exclusive to each other because of P(A and B) = 0.

Therefore, Let A be the major in mathematics and B be the major in philosophy.

Each student is required to only have one major.

No student does have two significant students.

Therefore, the likelihood of both the major pupils being zero.

This is P(A and B) = zero

Therefore, The events are exclusive to each other.
