EF=(1,2),(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(4,1),(6,1)E∪F=(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),(3,1),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),(5,1),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)FG=(1,4),(4,1)EFc=(2,3),(2,5),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,3),(4,5),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,3),(6,5)EFG=(1,4),(4,1)

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Describe the event EF.

Let x1be the number that appears on first dice and x2be the number that appears on second dice .

E=x1,x2:x1+x2=odd

F=1,x2,x1,1

role="math" localid="1649251598431" E=1,2,(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),3,2,(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),5,2,(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)F=1,1,(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),2,1,(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(6,1)

Therefore,EF=(1,2),(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(4,1),(6,1)

02

Step 2. Describe the event E∪F.

Let x1be the number that appears on first dice and x2be the number that appears on second dice

role="math" localid="1649252815561" E=x1,x2:x1+x2=odd

F=1,x2,x1,1

E=1,2,(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),3,2,(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),5,2,(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)F=1,1,(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),2,1,(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(6,1)

Therefore,role="math" localid="1649252729720" E∪F=(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),(3,1),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),(5,1),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)

03

Step 3. Describe the event FG

Let x1be the number that appears on first dice and x2be the number that appears on second dice

F=1,x2,x1,1

F=1,1,(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),2,1,(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(6,1)

localid="1649253609583" G=x1,x2:x1+x2=5

localid="1649253631472" G=1,4,(2,3),(3,2),(4,1)

Therefore,FG=(1,4),(4,1)

04

Step 4. Describe the event EFc.

Let x1be the number that appears on first dice and x2be the number that appears on second dice.

E=x1,x2:x1+x2=odd

F=1,x2,x1,1

role="math" localid="1649253358260" E=1,2,(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),3,2,(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),5,2,(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)F=1,1,(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),2,1,(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(6,1)

role="math" localid="1649253518201" Fc=S-F=2,2,(2,3),(2,4),(2,5),(2,6),3,2,(3,3),(3,4),(3,5),(3,6),4,2,(4,3),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),5,2,(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),6,2,(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6),

Therefore,EFc=(2,3),(2,5),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,3),(4,5),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,3),(6,5)

05

Step 5. Describe the event EFG.

Let x1be the number that appears on first dice and

x2be the number that appears on second dice

E=x1,x2:x1+x2=odd

F=1,x2,x1,1

G=x1,x2:x1+x2=5

localid="1649253644236" E=1,2,(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,3),(2,5),3,2,(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,3),(4,5),5,2,(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,3),(6,5)F=1,1,(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),2,1,(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),(6,1)G=1,4,(2,3),(3,2),(4,1)

Therefore,EFG=(1,4),(4,1)
