can someone give me show me a venn diagram that will satisfy this statement
Venn diagram to show that the statement p v (q ^ r) is equivalent to (p v q) ^ (p v r) and show that this statement is not equivalent to (p v q) ^ r.

Try to do the second one on your own-remember that the "vee" symbol represents UNION, and the "wedge" symbol represents INTERSECTION (when doing a Venn diagram):

In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
