If A and B are mutually exclusive events with P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.5, then P(A∩B) is equal to what?

Solution:

Given P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.5

A and B are mutually exclusive events.

Mutually exclusive events mean disconnected venn diagrams which have nothing in common.

Any element in set A is not same as any element in set B

Hence, the common part becomes null.

P(A ∩ B) = 0

If A and B are mutually exclusive events with P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.5, then P(A ∩ B) is equal to what?

Summary:

If A and B are mutually exclusive events with P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.5, then P(A ∩ B) is equal to zero.
