Consider the experiment in which you roll two distinguishable 6-sided fair die. Let S denote the sample space (i.e. all possible outcomes). Let A denote the event that you roll two different numbers and B denote the event that at least one of the numbers you roll is even. Compute P(A ∪ Bc)

Flip two fair coins. Then the sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT} where T = tails and H = heads. The outcomes HT and TH are different and the HT means that the first coin showed heads and the second coin showed tails.

A game is played with two fair 6-sided dice. The player rolls the dice. If the sum of the dice is 7 or less, the player loses $4. If the sum of the dice is 8 or 9, the player breaks-even. If the sum of the dice is 10 or greater, the player wins $10. The random variable X is a player’s gain (in $) from playing this game. a) Find P(X = 0). Give your answer as a fraction in lowest terms.
