Two events are mutually exclusive events if they cannot occur at the same time (i.e., they have no outcomes in common) Mutually Exclusive P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B) Mutually Exclusive Not Mutually Exclusive P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)- P(A and B ) Not Mutually Exclusive Addition Rule Note: This PowerPoint is only a summary and your main source should be the book. This means that P(A∩B)= 0 i.e. the two event cannot occur at the same time. P (S) AB Where P(A∩B) is the probability both A and B occur. P (S) B A P(A∩B)
Example 4-15 : Determining whether the two events are mutually exclusive. a. Randomly selecting a female student. Randomly selecting a student who is a junior b. Randomly selecting a person with type A blood. Randomly selecting a person with type B blood d. Randomly selecting a person who is under 21 years of age. Randomly selecting a person who is over 30 years of age. b. Rolling a die and getting an odd number. Rolling a die and getting a number less than 3. These event are not mutually exclusive These event are mutually exclusive These event are not mutually exclusive These event are mutually exclusive
Example 4-17: A city has 9 coffee shops: 3 Starbucks, 2 Caribou Coffees, and 4 Crazy Mocho Coffees. If person selects one shope at random to buy a cup of coffee, Find the probability that it is either a Starbucks or Crazy Mocho Coffees P( Starbucks or Crazy Mocho )= P( Starbucks ) + P( Crazy Mocho ) The events are mutually exclusive Solution :
Example 4-17: In a survey, 8%of the respondent said that their favorite ice cream flavor is cookies and cream, and 6%like mint chocolate chip. If person selected at random Find the probability that her favorite ice cream flavor is either cookies and cream or mint chocolate chips.

Example 4-22: The probability of person driving while intoxicated is 0.32, the probability of a person having a driving accident is 0.09, and the probability of a person having driving accident while intoxicated is What is the probability of a person driving while intoxicated or having driving accident? P( intoxicated or accident )= P( intoxicated ) + P( accident )-P( intoxicated and accident ) = =0.35 Solution : The events are not mutually exclusive

Two events A and B are independent events if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring. Note: This PowerPoint is only a summary and your main source should be the book. Multiplication Rules P(A and B)=P(A).P(B) Independent P(A and B)=P(A).P(B|A) Dependent

Example 4-25: An urn contains 3 red balls, 2blue balls and 5 white balls.A ball is selected and its color noted.Then it is replaced.A second ball is selected and its color noted. Find the probability of each of these. Note: This PowerPoint is only a summary and your main source should be the book.
Example 4-27: Approximately 9% of men have a type of color blindness that prevents them from distinguishing between red and green. If 3 men are selected at random, find the probability that all of them will have this type of red-green color blindness. Solution : Let C denote red – green color blindness. Then P(C and C and C) = P(C). P(C). P(C) = (0.09)(0.09)(0.09) = Note: This PowerPoint is only a summary and your main source should be the book.
Example 4-28: In a rcent survey,33% of the respondent said that they feel that they are overqualified (O) for their present job. Of these, 24% said that they were looking for a new job (J). If a person is selected at random, find the probability that the person feels that he is overqualified and is also looking for a new job Solution :

If 8 automobiles are stopped and checked by the police,find the probability that at least one will have defective brakes. Solution : P(at least one will have defective brakes) = 1 – p( all have not defective brakes) = 1- ( ) 8 = 1- (0.92) 8 = 0.487
