In probability theory, disjoint events are two (or more) events where more than one cannot occur in the same trial. It is possible that none of them occur in a particular trial.

How do you find the probability of disjoint events?

Multiply the possible outcomes of the events in the disjoint events


Its simple what are disjoint events?

Two events are disjoint if they cannot occur together. In set terms, their intersection is a null set.


Can independent events be disjoint?

No.


When two events are disjoint they are also independent?

When two events are disjoint (or mutually exclusive), it means that they cannot occur at the same time; if one event occurs, the other cannot. Consequently, disjoint events cannot be independent, because the occurrence of one event affects the probability of the other event occurring. In fact, for disjoint events, the probability of both events happening simultaneously is zero, which contradicts the definition of independence where the occurrence of one event does not influence the other. Therefore, disjoint events are not independent.


Are two disjoint events always complementary?

no

What does it mean when something is disjoint or overlapping in math?

Two sets are disjoint if there are elements that belong to both. Two sets are overlapping if there is at least one elements that belongs to both.


Can two disjoint sets be equivalent?

Yes,Because not all disjoint no equivalent other have disjoint and equivalent


If A and B are disjoint and B and C are disjoint are A and C disjoint?

Not necessarily. For a counterexample, A and C could be the same set.


What is joint and disjoint?

Two sets are said to be "disjoint" if they have no common element - their intersection is the empty set. As far as I know, "joint" is NOT used in the sense of the opposite of disjoint, i.e., "not disjoint".
