SOLUTION: Several of us in class are having problems with sets, subsets, etc. This question was placed on the board for us to solve. I so need help with this please. Given U = {All lette

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If U = {All letters of the alphabet}, A = {c, d, e, f} and B = {e, f, g, h, k}, then

A' = {a, b, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}

and

B' = {a, b, c, d, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}

A': set with members that are in U but not in A

B': set with members that are in U but not in B

-------------------------------------

a) Combine sets A & B (take out duplicates)
A U B = {c, d, e, f, g, h, k}

-------------------------------------

b) Find common elements in sets A & B
A ∩ B = {e, f}

-------------------------------------

c) Find common elements in sets A' & B'
A′ ∩ B′ = {a, b, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}


-------------------------------------

(d) Combine sets A' & B' (take out duplicates)

A′ U B′ = {a, b, c, d, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}

-------------------------------------

(e) Combine sets A & B'
A U B′ = {a, b, c, d, e, f, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}


-------------------------------------

(f) Hint: use part e)
(A U B′) ∩ B = {a, b, c, d, e, f, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z} ∩ {e, f, g, h, k}

(A U B′) ∩ B = {e, f}

-------------------------------------


(g) (A U B) ∩ (A U B′)

hint: use parts a) and e)

(A U B) ∩ (A U B′) = {c, d, e, f, g, h, k} ∩ {a, b, c, d, e, f, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}


(A U B) ∩ (A U B′) = {c, d, e, f}
