ANSWER


b.\text{ }0

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the correct option.

When two events are mutually exclusive, it implies that there are no common elements in the two events. This means that there is no common intersection point.

Therefore, P(A n B) is:


P(A\cap B)=0

The correct answer is option b.
