B: Exactly one head appears

C: At least two heads appear

Which one of the following is correct?

Options:

A) $ (A\cup B)\cap (A\cup C)=B\cup C $

B) $ (A\cap B’)\cup (A\cap C’)=B’\cup C’ $

C) $ A\cap (B’\cup C’)=A\cup B\cup C $

D) $ A\cap (B’\cup C’)=B’\cap C’ $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

$ U={(HHH)(HHT)(HTH)(HTT) $

$ (THH)(THT)(TTH)(TTT)} $

$ A={(TTT)} $

$ B={(HTT)(THT)(TTH)} $

$ C={(HHH)(HHT)(HTH)(THH)} $

By checking the options $ (d)A\cap (B’\cup C’)=B’\cap C’ $ is correct.
