Collectively exhaustive.
QA Guy, mutually exclusive refers to events which can never occur together. There is nothing in this question that suggests that - all it says is that the two events together cover all of the sample space, not that they don't overlap.

I can't recall the correct term, but its not mutually exclusive, mutually exclusive does imply (as Pascal already said) that the two events can not occur together.
This is a pretty reliably good sight for any math questions and definately has your answer somewhere: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/index.html

I'm going with Pascal's answer. There is nothing in the statement that has me believe that the events are mutually exclusive.
