Question: Protecting the Environment. A survey was conducted in Canada to ascertain public opinion about a major national park region in the Banff-Bow Valley. One question asked the amount that respondents would be willing to contribute per year to protect the environment in the Banff-Bow Valley region. The following frequency distribution was found in an article by J. Ritchie, S. Hudson, and $\mathrm{S}$.

For a respondent selected at random, let

\(A=\) event that the respondent would be willing to contribute at least $101,

\(B=\) event that the respondent would not be willing to contribute more than $50,

\(C=\) event that the respondent would be willing to contribute between $1 and $200, and \(D=\) event that the respondent would be willing to contribute at least $\$ 1$.

Describe the following events in words and determine the number of outcomes (respondents) that make up each event.

  1. \((\operatorname{not} D)\)
  2. \((A\text{ }\!\!\And\!\!\text{ }B)\)
  3. \((C\) or \(A)\)
