Respuesta :

Answer: the correct options are b and d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first define what mutually exclusive events are. If two events are mutually exclusive, it means that they cannot happen at the same time. For example, getting a head and a tail at the same time are mutually exclusive.

Considering a single spin of the spinner, the events that are mutually exclusive are

b)landing on a shaded sector and landing on a 3. This is because 3 is unshaded. You can either land on 3 or an unshaded sector at a time

d)landing on an unshaded sector and landing on a number less than 2. This is because the numbers in the unshaded sectors are greater than 2.
