Answer: The answer is {(w, l, l), (w, w, l), (w, l, w), (w, w, w), (l, l, w), (l, w, l), (l, w, w)}.



Step-by-step explanation: Given that a person in the casino is going to play 3 games of blackjack. Here, 'w' denotes a win and 'l' denotes a loss.  

Also, let 'A' be the event that the person wins at least one game of blackjack. Then, the outcomes of Event 'A' are

(i) win in 1st game     loss in 2nd game       loss in 3rd game

(ii) win in 1st game     win in 2nd game        loss in 3rd game

(iii) win in 1st game     loss in 2nd game       win in 3rd game

(iv) win in 1st game     win in 2nd game        win in 3rd game

(v) loss in 1st game     loss in 2nd game       win in 3rd game

(vi) loss in 1st game     win in 2nd game        loss in 3rd game

(vii) loss in 1st game     win in 2nd game       win in 3rd game

Thus, the outcomes of the event A are (w, l, l), (w, w, l), (w, l, w), (w, w, w), (l, l, w), (l, w, l) and (l, w, w).

Thus, A = {(w, l, l), (w, w, l), (w, l, w), (w, w, w), (l, l, w), (l, w, l), (l, w, w)}.
