Answer:

[tex]P (A\ and\ B) = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition if two events are mutually exclusive then they are disjoint events, that is, they can not occur at the same time.

In general terms we say that events are mutually exclusive, then:

[tex]P (A\ and\ B) = 0[/tex]

In this case we have that

[tex]P(A)= 0.3\\\\P(B)= 0.5[/tex]

But A and B are mutually exclusive events, then [tex]P (A\ and\ B) = 0[/tex]
