Answer:

0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that A and B are mutually exclusive events.


P(A)=0.60 and
P(B)=0.30

The formula to find probability of two mutually exclusive events is
P(\text{A or B})=P(A)+P(B)

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,


P(\text{A or B})=0.60+0.30


P(\text{A or B})=0.90

Therefore, the P(A or B) will be 0.90.
