1. **Problem Statement:** We are given three primary colors Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) used in additive color mixing. The secondary colors Yellow (Y), Cyan (C), and Magenta (M) are produced by mixing exactly two primary colors. We need to determine which color corresponds to each combination. 2. **Key Information:** - Additive color mixing means combining light colors. - Primary colors: R, G, B. - Secondary colors: Y, C, M. - White (W) is produced by mixing all three: $$R \cap B \cup G = W$$. - Secondary colors are formed by mixing exactly two primaries. 3. **Color Combinations:** - Magenta (M) is the mix of Red and Blue: $$M = R \cap B$$. - Cyan (C) is the mix of Blue and Green: $$C = B \cap G$$. - Yellow (Y) is the mix of Red and Green: $$Y = R \cap G$$. 4. **Explanation:** - The Venn diagram shows three circles for R, G, B. - The overlapping areas between two circles represent secondary colors. - The center where all three overlap is White (W). 5. **Summary:** - $$M = R + B$$ (Magenta) - $$C = B + G$$ (Cyan) - $$Y = R + G$$ (Yellow) - $$W = R + G + B$$ (White) This matches the additive color mixing rules for computer and television displays.
