you can imagine this as a venn diagram. the "or" event would consist of everything in both sides and the middle of the venn diagram because you can choose form either event x <u>or</u> event y.
the "and" event would consist of everything in the middle of the venn diagram because you choice must be a part of both event x <u>and</u> event y.
the complement of an event is just everything that is not included in the event. for example, in a coin flip, the complement of heads is tails. in a dice roll, the complement of {1,2} is {3,4,5,6}
so if you come across these just think "either or" or "both and." and remember that the complement is everything excluding what is listed.
i apologize if this does not help, im not that great at explaining things

Answer: $2400</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
x = Mason's salary in dollars for that month
x/6 = one-sixth of his salary
x/6+800 = total amount spent (the x/6 dollars and $800 combined)
In total, he spent half his salary. This means he spent x/2 dollars for the month overall.
Set the two items equal to one another. Solve for x.
x/6 + 800 = x/2
6(x/6 + 800) = 6*(x/2) ... see note at the bottom of the page
x+4800 = 3x
4800 = 3x-x
4800 = 2x
2x = 4800
x = 4800/2
x = 2400
His monthly salary is $2400
1/6 of this is (1/6)*2400 = 2400/6 = 400 dollars. Add on the $800 he also spent to get a total of 400+800 = 1200 dollars spent, which is exactly one half of the $2400. The answer is confirmed.
-------
Note: I multiplied both sides by 6 to clear out the fractions. The value 6 is the LCD in this case.
1- not a function; 3 in the domain is repeated
2- a function
3- a function
4- a function
Answer: No.
Step-by-step explanation: Sub -1/2 in for u in the equation:
8(-1/2) - 1 =6(-1/2)
=-4-1 = -3
=
-5=-3 which is false, so it is not a solution
