I'll do the first five to get you going in the right direction...


Start with the given sets:






Find their respective complement sets (eg, the complement of A is everything in U, but NOT in A):








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


a) Simply combine the two sets A and B (remember to remove any duplicates) to find the union:




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

b) Now form a new set of the common elements of sets A and B:





Use the same logic to complete the rest (but this time we're using different sets in different combinations)


c)


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

d)



------------------------------------------------------------------
e)
