Eight identical slips of paper, each containing one number from one to eight, inclusive, are mixed up inside a bag. Subset A of the sample space represents the complement of the event in which the number 6 is drawn from the bag.

Which shows subset A?

A = {6}
A = {1, 3, 5, 7}
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}


Respuesta :

Answer:  The correct option is (C) A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that eight identical slips of paper, each containing one number from one to eight, inclusive, are mixed up inside a bag.

The sample space, S will be

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}.

Subset A of the sample space represents the complement of the event in which the number 6 is drawn from the bag.

Let, 'B' represents the event in which the number 6 is drawn from the bag.

So, B = {6}.

Since 'A' is the complement of 'B', so the set 'A' will contain those element of the sample space 'S' that are not in the set 'B'.

Therefore,

A = B' = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}

⇒ A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}.

Thus, (C) is the correct option.

The subset relation defines a partial order on sets.

The subset A is equal to A =  {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}.

Given

Eight identical slips of paper, each containing one number from one to eight, inclusive, are mixed up inside a bag.

Subset A of the sample space represents the complement of the event in which the number 6 is drawn from the bag.

What is a subset?

The subset relation defines a partial order on sets. In fact, the subsets of a given set form a Boolean algebra under the subset relation, in which the join and meet are given by intersection and union, and the subset relation itself is the Boolean inclusion relation.

A = Numbers inside the Bag = {Eight Identical slips of paper numbering from 1 to 8}  = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}.

Subset A of the sample space represents the complement of the event in which the number 6 is drawn from the bag.

Let B = Subset of A = Complement of the event in which number 6 is drawn from 8 numbers

Subset A = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} - {6}

Subset A =  {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}

Hence, the subset A is equal to A =  {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}.
