You sell two models of music players: the yoVaina Grandote and the yoVaina Minúsculito, and each comes in three colors: Infraroja, Ultravioleta, and Radiografia. Let \(M\) be the set of models and let \(C\) be the set of colors. What set represents the different choices a customer can make?
Let \(S\) be the set of outcomes when two distinguishable dice are rolled, let \(E\) be the subset of outcomes in which at least one die shows an even number, and let \(F\) be the subset of outcomes in which at least one die shows an odd number. List the elements in each subset given. $$ E^{\prime} $$
Use Venn diagrams to illustrate the following identities for subsets \(A, B\), and \(\operatorname{Cof} S .\) $$ \begin{aligned} &(A \cap B) \cap C=A \cap(B \cap C)\\\ &\text { Associative Law } \end{aligned} $$
