Chapter 19: Problem 10
One letter is selected at random from the 5 letters \(\mathrm{V}, \mathrm{W}, \mathrm{X}, \mathrm{Y},\) and \(\mathrm{Z}\), and event \(A\) is the event that the letter \(\mathrm{V}\) is selected. A fair six-sided die with sides numbered \(1,2,3,4,5,\) and 6 is to be rolled, and event \(B\) is the event that a 5 or a 6 shows. A fair coin is to be tossed, and event \(C\) is the event that a head shows. What is the probability that event \(A\) occurs and at least one of the events \(B\) and \(C\) occurs? a. \(\frac{1}{30}\) b. \(\frac{1}{15}\) c. \(\frac{1}{10}\) d. \(\frac{2}{15}\) e. \(\frac{1}{5}\)
