(a) We have
$$
X = \{A, B, C, D\} \quad \text{and} \quad Y = \{F, A, C, E\}.
$$
The complement of $$ Y $$ is
$$
Y^{n} = \text{Sample Space} - Y = \{B, D, G\}.
$$
Thus, the event $$ X \text{ or } Y^{n} $$ is the union:
$$
X \cup Y^{n} = \{A, B, C, D\} \cup \{B, D, G\} = \{A, B, C, D, G\}.
$$

(b) The event $$ X \text{ and } Y^{n} $$ is the intersection:
$$
X \cap Y^{n} = \{A, B, C, D\} \cap \{B, D, G\} = \{B, D\}.
$$

(c) The complement of $$ X $$ is all letters not in $$ X $$:
$$
X^{c} = \{A, B, C, D, E, F, G\} - \{A, B, C, D\} = \{E, F, G\}.
$$
(a) $$ X \text{ or } Y^{n} = A, B, C, D, G $$ (b) $$ X \text{ and } Y^{n} = B, D $$ (c) Complement of $$ X = E, F, G $$
