The events A and B are mutually exclusive. Suppose P(A) = 0.36 and P(B) = 0.39. What is the probability of either A or B occurring? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) What is the probability that neither A nor B will happen? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Added by Celia B.
Step 1
To find the probability of either A or B occurring, we can use the formula for the probability of the union of two events: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) Since A and B are mutually exclusive, the probability of them both occurring (P(A and B)) is 0. Show more…

The events A and B are mutually exclusive. Suppose P(A) = 0.31 and P(B) = 0.20. What is the probability of either A or B occurring? (Round the final answer to 2 decimal places.) Probability of either A or B What is the probability that neither A nor B will happen? (Round the final answer to 2 decimal places.) Probability of neither A or B

The probability of event $A$ occurring is $m /(2 m+n)$ and the probability of event $B$ occurring is $n /(2 m+n)$ Find the probability of $A$ or $B$ occurring if the events are mutually exclusive.
