State True or False 96. If A and B are mutually exclusive events, then they will be independent also.
Find if events A and B are independent and mutually exclusive Given, A and B are mutually exclusive Two events are mutually exclusive if they cannot occur at the same time. Another word that means mutually exclusive is disjoint. If two events are disjoint, then the probability of them both occurring at the same time is 0 If at least one of the events has zero probability, then the two events can be mutually exclusive and independent simultaneously. However, if both events have non-zero probability, then they cannot be mutually exclusive and independent simultaneously.
