No, by definition, muatually exclusive cannot occur together .
Two events that cannot occur at the same time are called mutually exclusive. If two events are mutually exclusive what is the probability that both occur.
No because the term mutually exclusive implies the the trials that could result in these events are sequenced in time.

No, two events cannot be mutually exclusive and independent simultaneously. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur at the same time, meaning the occurrence of one event excludes the possibility of the other. In contrast, independent events are defined such that the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other occurring. Therefore, if two events are mutually exclusive, the occurrence of one event implies that the other cannot occur, which contradicts the definition of independence.
The answer depends on whether A and B can occur together, that is, if they are mutually exclusive.
The definition of mutually exclusive events is that the events can't occur at the same time. For example, you can't flip a coin and get a head and a tail; they are mutually exclusive events.
No, if two events are mutually exclusive, they cannot both occur. If one occurs, it means the second can not occur.
At most one of the events can occur.
Two events that cannot occur at the same time are called mutually exclusive. If two events are mutually exclusive what is the probability that both occur.
Yes, they are. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together. Complementary events cannot occur together either because an event and its complement are the negative of each other.
No because the term mutually exclusive implies the the trials that could result in these events are sequenced in time.
No, independence means they are not related. Mutually exclusive means they cannot occur at the same time.
Mutually exclusive.
Add the probabilities of the two events. If they're not mutually exclusive, then you need to subtract the probability that they both occur together.

Two events that cannot occur at the same time are called mutually exclusive.
Two mutually exclusive events, means these two event can not occur at the same time. In probability theory, this is stated as: Given events, A and B, then Pr(A and B) = 0. See related link...
