Final answer:

1. The set of honest people, big people, and dedicated students are not well-defined. The sets of even counting numbers and prime numbers are well-defined. 2. Set M: Counting odd numbers less than 10 (elements: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9). Set A: Months that start with the letter 'J' (elements: January, June, July). Set T: All factors of 10 (elements: 1, 2, 5, 10). Set H: Subjects you have in grade 7 (elements: Mathematics, English, Science, Social Studies). Set I: Prime numbers between 1 and 100 (elements: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ..., 97). Set S: Distinct letters from the word 'araling panlipunan' (elements: a, r, l, i, n, g, p, u). Set F: Vowels from the word 'example' (elements: a, e). Set U: Consonants from the word 'english' (elements: n, g, l, s, h). Set N: Composite numbers from 11 to 20 (elements: 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20).

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. The set of honest people is not well-defined because honesty is subjective and can vary from person to person.
  2. The set of even counting numbers is well-defined and can be represented as {2, 4, 6, 8, ...}.
  3. The set of prime numbers is well-defined and can be represented as {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ...}.
  4. The set of big people is not well-defined because the term 'big' is vague and can have different interpretations.
  5. The set of dedicated students is not well-defined because the term 'dedicated' is subjective and can vary for each individual.
  1. Set M: Counting odd numbers less than 10. Elements: {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}. Cardinality: 5.
  2. Set A: Months that start with the letter 'J'. Elements: {January, June, July}. Cardinality: 3.
  3. Set T: All factors of 10. Elements: {1, 2, 5, 10}. Cardinality: 4.
  4. Set H: Subjects you have in grade 7. Elements: {Mathematics, English, Science, Social Studies}. Cardinality: 4.
  5. Set I: Prime numbers between 1 and 100. Elements: {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ..., 97}. Cardinality: 25.
  6. Set S: Distinct letters from the word 'araling panlipunan'. Elements: {a, r, l, i, n, g, p, u}.
  7. Set F: Vowels from the word 'example'. Elements: {a, e}.
  8. Set U: Consonants from the word 'english'. Elements: {n, g, l, s, h}.
  9. Set N: Composite numbers from 11 to 20. Elements: {12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20}. Cardinality: 6.
