Find the probability p(e or f) if e and f are mutually exclusive, p(e)equals 0.25, and p(f)equals 0.51.

The definition of two events being mutually exclusive (or disjoint) only means that it is not possible for the two events to occur together. Given two events, E and F, they are mutually exclusive and also mean independent.

In this case, since events E and F are mutually exclusive, therefore the probability that either E or F will occur will simply be the sum of two events.

P (E or F) = P (E) + P (F)

P (E or F) = 0.25 + 0.51

P (E or F) = 0.76

Therefore this means that there is a 76% probability that either E or F will occur.
