A ) { o, e }

B ) { m, v, r, s, }

C ) {v,r,s,}

D ) {m,o,v,e,r,s}

Answer 1

To determine the set that represents the favorable outcomes of randomly choosing a consonant letter from the word "movers," we first identify the letters in the word:

- m
- o
- v
- e
- r
- s

Next, let's identify which of these letters are consonants and which are vowels. The vowels in the English language are a, e, i, o, and u.

From the letters in "movers":
- Consonants: m, v, r, s
- Vowels: o, e

Thus, the consonants are {m, v, r, s}.

Now we can look at the provided options:

A) { o, e } - This is incorrect because o and e are vowels.
B) { m, v, r, s } - This is correct because these are all the consonants.
C) { v, r, s } - This is incorrect because it excludes the consonant m.
D) { m, o, v, e, r, s } - This is incorrect because this set includes vowels.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

**B) { m, v, r, s }**
