Let A, B and C be the sets: . A={1,3,5,6,8,10} • B = {2,3,6,9} • C = {1,5,7) Write these as sets explicitly (list all possible elements enclosed within {}). (a) AUB (b) Bnc (c) A-B (d) BxC (C) PIC).

Answer:

(a) [tex]A\cup B=\{1,2,3,5,6,8,9,10\}[/tex]

(b) [tex]B\cap C=\{\}[/tex]

(c) [tex]A-B=\{1,5,8,10\}[/tex]

(d) [tex]B\times C=\{(2,1),(2,5),(2,7),(3,1),(3,5),(3,7),(6,1),(6,5),(6,7),(9,1),(9,5),(9,7)\}[/tex]

(e) [tex]P(C)=\{\{\},\{1\},\{5\},\{7\},\{1,5\},\{1,7\},\{5,7\},\{1,5,7\}\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

A, B and C are three sets:

A={1,3,5,6,8,10}, B = {2,3,6,9}, C = {1,5,7}

A set contains distinct elements.

(a)

We need to find the set AUB. In this set all elements of A and B are included.

[tex]A\cup B=\{1,2,3,5,6,8,9,10\}[/tex]

(b)

We need to find the set B∩C. In this set all common elements of B and C are included.

[tex]B\cap C=\{\}[/tex]

It is an empty set because there is no common element in set B and C.

(c)

We need to find the set A-B. In this set all elements of A are included excluding the common elements of A and B.

[tex]A-B=\{1,5,8,10\}[/tex]

(d)

We need to find the set BxC.

BxC is defined as

[tex]B\times C=\{(x,y):x\in B,y\in C\}[/tex]

[tex]B\times C=\{(2,1),(2,5),(2,7),(3,1),(3,5),(3,7),(6,1),(6,5),(6,7),(9,1),(9,5),(9,7)\}[/tex]

(e)

We need to find the set P(C). It is a power set of C. It is the collection of all subsets of set C.

[tex]P(C)=\{\{\},\{1\},\{5\},\{7\},\{1,5\},\{1,7\},\{5,7\},\{1,5,7\}\}[/tex]
