20. Three coins are tossed once. Let A denote the event ‘three heads show”, B denote the event “two heads and one tail show”, C denote the event” three tails
show and D denote the event ‘a head shows on the first coin”. Which events are
(i) Mutually exclusive ? (ii) Simple? (iii) Compound?

20. The sample space of the experiment is
S = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}
Now, A = {HHH}
B = {HHT, HTH, THH}
C = {TTT}
D = {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT}
(i) A∩ B = {HHH}∩ {HHT, HTH, THH} =∅
A ∩ C = {HHH}∩ {TTT} =∅
A∩ D = {HHH}∩ {HHH, HTH, HTT} = {HHH}
B ∩ C = {HHT, HTH, THH}∩ {TTT} =∅
B∩ D = {HHT, HTH, THH}∩ {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT} = {HHT, HTH}
C∩ D = {TTT}∩ {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT} =∅
Hence, (A, B), (A, C), (B, C) and (C, D) are pairs of mutually exclusive events.
(ii) Simple event are those which has only one sample point. So, the simple event are A and C.
(iii) Event having m
