Question

If rolling a number cube, identify the following events as disjointed or overlapping.

Answer 1

Answer:

overlapping events

Step-by-step explanation:

Event A: Rolling a prime

The following are the prime numbers from 1 to 6 (inclusive):

2,3,5

Event B: Rolling a number larger than 4

The following are larger than 4 from 1 to 6 (inclusive):

5,6

Do you see any overlap?

The overlap is 5.

These are overlapping events.

Answer 2

Answer:

Overlapping events

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in the question, it specifically specifies that there is only a number cube (or 1 number cube). Note that the two events asked for us to solve is does not conflict at all.

Event A is asking for the probability of you rolling a prime number (1 , 3 , 5), while Event B is asking for the probability of you rolling a number larger than 4 (5 , 6). These two can occur at the same time, and both events can be confirmed by rolling the number 5.
