Q1. A group of five applicants for a pair of identical jobs consists of three men and two
women. The employer is to select two of the five applicants for the jobs. Let S
denote the set of all possible outcomes for the employer's selection. Let A denote
the subset of outcomes corresponding to the selection of two men and B the subset
corresponding to the selection of at least one woman. List the outcomes in A, B,
AUB, AN B, and An B. (Denote the different men and women by M₁, M2, M3
and W₁, W2, respectively.)
