b. A subset of sample space corresponds to the event H=“All washing machines are of high quality”. List the points from your sample space that are in the event H.

c. A subset of sample space corresponds to the event K=“Exactly one washing machine is of low quality”. List the points from your sample space that are in the event K.

d. Are events H and K mutually exclusive? You must justify your answer.

e. Are events H and ?? mutually exclusive? You must justify your answer.

f. Are events H and K independent? You must justify your answer.

g. Are events H and ?? independent? You must justify your answer.
