Answer:

A) Not mutually exclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P(A) = \frac{1}{4}

P(B) = \frac{3}{5}

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{7}{10}

Required

Determine if they are mutually exclusive or not

Mutually exclusive are defined by:

P(A\ or\ B) = P(A) + P(B)

So, we have:

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{3}{5}

Take LCM

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{5+12}{20}

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{17}{20}

By comparing:

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{17}{20} ---- Calculated

P(A\ or\ B) = \frac{7}{10} ---- Given

We can conclude that A and B are not mutually exclusive because:

\frac{17}{20} \ne \frac{7}{10}
