33.3.2 Mutually Exclusive and Complementary Events
Core idea
"Rolling a 3" and "rolling a 5" can't both happen, so they're mutually exclusive, while "winning" and "not winning" leave no in-between, so they're complementary
Module goal. Treat events like sets you can add and subtract, building the addition formula and the language of mutually exclusive and complementary events
