A card is drawn at random from a deck of 52 cards. Let the events be: A = "A figure card comes out" and B = "A red card comes out." The cardinalities of the sets "The Complement of A" and "A intersection B" are:
 
a) 26, 6
b) 40, 6
c) 52, 26
d) 40, 12
Expert Solution
Step 1

A= A figure card comes out

A figure card is the king, queen and jack card in the deck

There are 3 figure cards each of Diamond, Hearts, Clubs and Spades 

Therefore, total number of figure cards in a deck of 52 cards is 3×4=12

 

Cardinalities of Complement of event A= card drawn is not a figure card=52-12=40
