Two dice are thrown. The events $A, B$ and $C$ are as follows:
$A:$ getting an even number on the first die.
$B:$ getting an odd number on the first die.
$C:$ getting the sum of the numbers on the dice $\leq 5$.
Describe the event $A$ but not $C$.
$A:$ getting an even number on the first die.
$B:$ getting an odd number on the first die.
$C:$ getting the sum of the numbers on the dice $\leq 5$.
Describe the event $A$ but not $C$.
(A) When two dice are thrown,the sample space $S$ contains $36$ outcomes.
$A = \{(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6), (6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)\}$
$C = \{(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (3,1), (3,2), (4,1)\}$
The event '$A$ but not $C$' is represented by the set difference $A - C$.
Subtracting the elements of $C$ that are also in $A$ (i.e.,$(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (4,1)$) from $A$:
$A - C = \{(2,4), (2,5), (2,6), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6), (6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)\}$
