If a die is rolled 30 times, there are \(6^{30}\) different sequences possible.Ask how many of these sequences satisfy certain conditions. What fraction of these sequences have exactly 15 even numbers?
Let \(A=\\{H, T\\}\) be the set of outcomes when a coin is tossed, and let \(B=\\{1,2,3,4,5,6\\}\) be the set of outcomes when a die is rolled. Write each set in terms of A and/or \(B\) and list its elements. The set of outcomes when a coin is tossed twice and then a die is rolled.
Use Venn diagrams to illustrate the following identities for subsets \(A, B\), and \(\operatorname{Cof} S .\) $$ S^{\prime}=\emptyset $$
Home Sales Exercises are based on the following table, which shows the number of sales of existing homes, in millions, in the different regions of the United States during \(2006-2008 .\) Take \(S\) to be the set of all home sales represented in the table and label the sets representing the home sales in each row and column as shown (so that, for example, \(N\) is the set of all sales of existing homes in the Northeast during \(2006-2008\) ) Use symbols to describe each set, and compute its cardinality. The set of sales of existing homes in 2007 excluding sales in the South
Car Engines \(^{13}\) In a six-cylinder V6 engine, the evennumbered cylinders are on the left and the odd-numbered cylinders are on the right. A good firing order is a sequence of the numbers 1 through 6 in which right and left sides alternate. a. How many possible good firing sequences are there? b. How many good firing sequences are there that start with a cylinder on the left?
