Suppose you have a perfectly fair 10-sided die,with sample space S = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}.What is the event H,which is defined as any even-numbered roll?
A)H = {1,2,3,4,5}
B)H = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}
C)H = {2,4,6,8,10}
D)H = {0 or 1}

The event H includes any even-numbered roll, which is {2,4,6,8,10}. Therefore, the correct choice is C. Option A is incorrect because it includes odd numbers. Option B is also incorrect because it includes all numbers in the sample space, including odd numbers. Option D is incorrect because the die only has 10 sides, so it is not possible to roll a 0 or 1.
