Question 1088711: Which of the following events are mutually exclusive?
A.Event "ace"and event"black card.
B.Event "queen" and event"heart".
C.Event "ten" and" spade".
D.Event "diamond" and event"club". Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
B. It's possible to get a queen of hearts. These two events aren't mutually exclusive.
C. It's possible to get a ten of spades. These two events are also not mutually exclusive.
D. It's impossible to get a diamond card AND a club card at the same time. This is assuming you draw one card only. Therefore these two events are mutually exclusive. If A = getting a diamond and B = getting a club, then P(A and B) = 0.
