Question

1. which events could occur at the same time, indicating overlapping?

a. drawing a red card or a club
b. rolling a 3 or a 5 on a die
c. choosing between coffee or tea
d. drawing a king or a heart

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze option a

A club is a black - colored suit. A red card and a club cannot be the same card. So, these two events (drawing a red card and drawing a club) cannot occur simultaneously.

Step2: Analyze option b

When rolling a die, you can only get one number at a time. You cannot roll a 3 and a 5 simultaneously.

Step3: Analyze option c

When choosing between coffee and tea, you can only pick one beverage at a time.

Step4: Analyze option d

There is a card which is the king of hearts. So, when drawing a card, it is possible to draw a card that is both a king and a heart (the king of hearts).

Answer:

D. Drawing a king or a heart
