When two events (call them A and B) are Mutually Exclusive it is impossible for them to happen together: P(A and B) = 0. The probability of A and B together equals 0 (impossible).
Answer Wiki. Strauss & Howe, the social historians known for pioneering generational theory[1], would say that Gen X (the 13th generation) and Gen Y (the millennial generation) each have the traits of their corresponding generational archetypes. Generation X is generally used to refer to people born in the 60s and 70s. According to Strauss & Howe, it is a Nomad generation, an archetype they share with the Lost Generation of the 1890s and 1900s. Both generations are characterized by a disaffected attitude and general disdain for everything that came before.
Generation X is an estimated 50 million strong. Most demographers agree that GenXers were born between 1964 and 1984 â putting them between the ages of 26 and 46. This generation is often referred to as âbaby busters,â as they are attributed to a rapid decline in birth rates after the Baby Boomers. Moreover, Gen X is a highly educated and sophisticated group â with more than 60% of the population having attended higher education institutions.
