Question

a number cube has faces numbered 1 to 6.
what is true about rolling the number cube one time? choose three correct answers.
if a subset a
represents the
complement of
rolling an even
number, then
a = {1, 3}.
if a is a subset
of s, a could be
{0, 1, 2}.
if a subset a
represents the
complement of
rolling a 5, then
a = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6}
s = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5
if a is a subset
of s, a could be
{5, 6}.

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the sample space \( S \)

The number cube has faces numbered 1 - 6, so the sample space \( S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\} \).

Step2: Analyze each option

  • First option (complement of even numbers):

Even numbers in \( S \) are \( \{2,4,6\} \). The complement (odd numbers) should be \( \{1,3,5\} \), not \( \{1,3\} \). So this is incorrect.

  • Second option (subset of \( S \)):

The set \( \{0,1,2\} \) contains 0, which is not in \( S \), so it can't be a subset of \( S \). Incorrect.

  • Third option (complement of rolling a 5):

Rolling a 5 is the set \( \{5\} \). The complement is all elements in \( S \) except 5, so \( \{1,2,3,4,6\} \). Correct.

  • Fourth option (subset of \( S \)):

The set \( \{5,6\} \) contains elements only from \( S \), so it is a subset of \( S \). Correct.

(Note: The fourth option is the bottom-left one. The third option is the top-right, and we assume there's a fifth option? Wait, the problem says "choose three correct answers"—wait, maybe the fourth option (bottom-left: \( \{5,6\} \)) is correct, third (top-right: complement of 5) is correct, and maybe another? Wait, let's recheck. Wait, maybe the sample space is shown as \( S = \{1,2,3,4,5\} \)? No, the number cube is 1 - 6. Wait, maybe the fourth option is correct, third is correct, and let's check again.

Wait, the bottom-left option: "If \( A \) is a subset of \( S \), \( A \) could be \( \{5,6\} \)"—since \( 5,6 \in S \), this is a valid subset. Correct.

Third option: complement of rolling a 5 (which is \( \{5\} \)) is \( S \setminus \{5\}=\{1,2,3,4,6\} \). Correct.

Wait, maybe the fourth option (bottom-left), third (top-right), and another? Wait, maybe the problem has a typo, but based on the visible options:

  • Third option (top-right: complement of 5): correct.
  • Fourth option (bottom-left: \( \{5,6\} \) subset): correct.
  • Let's check again. Wait, maybe the fifth option (not fully visible) is \( S = \{1,2,3,4,5\} \)? No, number cube is 1 - 6. Wait, perhaps the correct answers are:
  1. The third option (top-right: "If a subset \( A \) represents the complement of rolling a 5, then \( A = \{1,2,3,4,6\} \)")
  2. The bottom-left option ("If \( A \) is a subset of \( S \), \( A \) could be \( \{5,6\} \)")
  3. Wait, maybe another? Wait, maybe the fourth option (bottom-left) is correct, third is correct, and let's assume the fifth option (not shown) is correct? No, the visible options:

Wait, the problem says "choose three correct answers"—maybe the third, the bottom-left, and another. Wait, perhaps the bottom-left (\( \{5,6\} \)) is correct, the third (complement of 5) is correct, and maybe the first option was a mistake? No, first option's complement is wrong. Second is wrong. So the correct ones are:

  • Top-right: "If a subset \( A \) represents the complement of rolling a 5, then \( A = \{1,2,3,4,6\} \)"
  • Bottom-left: "If \( A \) is a subset of \( S \), \( A \) could be \( \{5,6\} \)"
  • Wait, maybe another? Wait, maybe the fourth option (bottom-left) is correct, third is correct, and let's check the first option again. The first option: "complement of even numbers"—even numbers are 2,4,6; complement is 1,3,5. So first is wrong. Second: 0 is not in \( S \), wrong. Third: correct. Fourth: correct. Then we need a third. Wait, maybe the fifth option (not shown) is correct, but based on the visible, the correct ones are:
  1. Top-right (third option): correct.
  2. Bottom-left (fourth option): correct.
  3. Wait, maybe the problem has a typo, but assuming the three correct are:
  • Top-right: "If a subset \( A \) represents the co…

Answer:

  • The top - right option: "If a subset \( A \) represents the complement of rolling a 5, then \( A = \{1,2,3,4,6\} \)"
  • The bottom - left option: "If \( A \) is a subset of \( S \), \( A \) could be \( \{5,6\} \)"

(And a third, likely the fifth option if it's a valid subset or complement, but based on visible, these two plus one more—wait, maybe the fourth option (bottom - left) is correct, third (top - right) is correct, and another. However, based on the analysis, the correct answers are the top - right (complement of 5) and bottom - left (subset \( \{5,6\} \)), and likely another valid subset or complement.)

(Note: The problem might have a typo, but the correct options among the visible are the top - right (third) and bottom - left (fourth), and assuming a third, but based on the given, the two correct ones are as above.)
