1.1-3. Draw one card at random from a standard deck of
cards. The sample space S is the collection of the 52 cards.
Assume that the probability set function assigns 1/52 to
each of the 52 outcomes. Let
A = {x: x is a jack, queen, or king).
B = (x:x is a 9, 10, or jack and x is red).
C = (x:x is a club),
D = (x:x is a diamond, a heart, or a spade).
Find (a) P(A), (b) P(AB), (c) P(AUB), (d) P(CUD),
and (e) P(COD).
