Answer

$C\cup B$ $n(C\cup B)=$12

Work Step by Step

$E\cap F$ represents the event that both $E$ and $F$ occur. $E\cup F$ represents the event that $E$ occurs or $F$ occurs (or both) The complement of $E,\ E^{\prime}$ represents the event that $E$ does not occur. A: the red die shows l B: the numbers add to 4 C: at least one of the numbers is 1 D: the numbers do not add to 11 $ S=\{(1,1),(1,2),...,(1,6),\\$ $(2,1),(2,2),...,(2,6),\\$ $...\\$ $(6,1),(6,2),...,(6,6)\}$, where (x,y) represents "x on red die, y on green die" ---------------------- The event here is: (C occurs) OR (B occurs): $C\cap B$ $C=\{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6)\\$ $(2,1),(3,1),(4,1),(5,1),6,1)\}\\\\$ $B=\{(1,3),(2,2),(3,1)\}\\\\$ $C\cap B=\{(1,3),(3,1)\}\\\\$ $n(C\cup B)=n(C)+n(B)-n\{C\cap B\}=11+3-2=12$
