Are E1 and E2 mutually exclusive?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks whether E1 and E2 are mutually exclusive, which means whether they cannot occur at the same time. 
Option 1: 'No' — This implies that E1 and E2 can occur together or are not mutually exclusive. The correct reasoning would be that there is some overlap or that both events can happen concurrently, depending on the context or definitions of E1 and E2. Since the provided answer indicates 'No', we’re asserting that mutual exclusivity does not hold and that the events are able to co-occur in at least some scenarios. 
Option 2: 'Yes' — This would mean E1 and E2 cannot occur together. To justify 'Yes', one would need a premise that the events are disjoint; however, in this case the supplied answer disagrees with that and would require a specific context where overlap is impossible. Because the given answer data specify 'No', labeling this option as incorrect explains that the mutual exclusivity assumption does not apply here. 
In summary, evaluating both options: the 'No' choice aligns with the idea that E1 and E2 are not mutually exclusive and can occur simultaneously under certain conditions, while the 'Yes' choice would assert the opposite but contradicts the provided answer. Therefore, the reasoning supports that mutual exclusivity does not hold for E1 and E2, and the 'Yes' option is incorrect under the given information.
