In the experiment of a single roll of a 6-faced die, if the outcome "3 shows up" is called event A and the outcome "4 shows up" is called event B, then A and B are __________.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A and B are __________.mutually exclusive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in the experiment of a single roll of a 6-faced die, if the outcome "3 shows up" is called event A and the outcome "4 shows up" is called event B,

We know that a die has six faces and at a time only one face can be shown up.

If fair die the numbers on the die 1,2,3.4,5,6 may appear with equal probability 1/6.

If a die shows 3 it cannot show 4 also simultaneously.

In other words 3 and 4 are disjoint events.

These are also called mutually exclusive events and their joint probability is 0 meaning both occurring together is uncertain always

A and B are __________.mutually exclusive.
