To combine two sets, they must have at least one dimension in common. In this case, Customers of 2020 and Top N Customers both have Customer Name as a dimension, so they can be combined using set operations such as union, intersection, or difference. Sellers of 2020 and Top N Products have different dimensions (Seller Name and Product Name), so they cannot be combined.

In Tableau, sets can be combined if they are created from the same dimension. From the options provided, "Customers of 2020" and "Top N Customers" are likely created from the same dimension (Customers). Therefore, these two sets can be combined to create a new set that includes or excludes members based on the combined criteria. Combining sets like "Top N Products" with "Customers of 2020" would not be feasible unless they are from the same dimension, which is typically not the case.

To modify the chart to show only min and max values of both measures in each region, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the Line worksheet.

Click on the Line tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a line chart that shows the sales and profit for each month by region.

Drag Month from the Columns shelf to Filters shelf. This will open a dialog box that allows you to filter by different criteria.

Select Range of Dates from the dialog box. This will show you options to filter by a range of dates or values.

Select Minimum and Maximum from the drop-down list next to Month. This will filter by the minimum and maximum values of Month for each region. You can also enter specific values or use the sliders to adjust the range.

Click OK to apply the filter. You will see that the line chart now shows only min and max values of both measures in each region.

To split the Customer Name field into two fields named First Name and Last Name, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that uses the Superstore data source.

Go to the Data Source tab at the bottom of the workbook to see the data source page. You will see a table that shows the fields and values from the Superstore data source.

Right-click on Customer Name in the table and select Split from the menu. This will split the field into two fields based on a separator, which is a space by default. You will see two new fields named Customer Name - Split 1 and Customer Name - Split 2 in the table.

Right-click on Customer Name - Split 1 and select Rename from the menu. Type First Name as the new name and press Enter. This will rename the field as First Name.

Right-click on Customer Name - Split 2 and select Rename from the menu. Type Last Name as the new name and press Enter. This will rename the field as Last Name.
