HEL An example of something discrete is
A. a set of friends: John, Martin, and Bill
B. a set of dice landing on 3 and 4
C. both of the above

Explanation:

Choice A is discrete because it is a finite set. There aren't infinitely many names in here.

The same goes for choice B as well. We have two items in this set { (3,4), (4,3) }. The set of all possible dice rolls is also discrete as there are 6^2 = 36 different ways to roll two dice.

An example of a set that isn't discrete, and continuous, would be the set of real numbers. In this set, we can pick any two values and find the midpoint. We can do this infinitely many times. So in a way, this set is very dense and we can infinitely zoom into a particular region. We can't do the same for a set of finitely many items.

-2

7 - 9 = -2

reversed:

-2 + 9 = 7

the number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner and show the number 4 on the second spinner is 2.

3                   4 = not 1, and 4

only 2 outcomes have passed the given condition.
