Probability/The Addition RuleQuestion 16A company that makes soda pop cans find the probability of producing a can without a puncture is 0.96, the probability that a can does not have a smashed edge is 0.93, and the probability that a can does not have a puncture or does not have a smashed edge is 0.893.
Are the events "selecting a can without a puncture" and "selecting a can without a smashed edge" mutually exclusive? {#1}

Not mutually exclusive. A can may have no punctures and no smashed edges.
