Question 879434: Suppose 2 events A and B are mutually exclusive and that Pr[A] = 0.3 and Pr[B] = 0.5. What are the probabilities that (a)either events occur, (b) A occurs and B does not, and (c)both A and B occur?

events A and B are mutually exclusive
P(A or B) = .3 + .5 = .8
P(A and not B)= .3
P(A and B) = 0
