If events X and Y are mutually exclusive, . P(X) = 1/3 and P(Y) =…

If events X and Y are mutually exclusive, . P(X) = 1/3 and P(Y) = 2/5, P(X∩Y) is

  • A.
    o
  • B.
    2/15
  • C.
    11/15
  • D.
    4/15
  • E.
    1
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

P(X (cap) Y) = (frac{1}{3} times frac{2}{5})

= (frac{2}{15})
