Recall, the following definitions:
Complement: A complement of a set is simply a set with the elements of the universal set, but NOT the the elements of the given set.
Example: set A = {1, 2, 3} and the universal set is all whole numbers. So A' (the complement of A) is the set of all whole numbers but NOT 1, 2, or 3
Union: A set union is the combination of two sets.
Example: set A={1, 2, 3}, set B={a, b, c} which means that A U B = {1, 2, 3, a, b, c}
Intersection: A set intersection between two sets yields a new set of all the common elements between the two given sets.
Example: A={a, b, d, e}, set B={a, b, c} means that A ∩ B = {a, b}
===========================================================================
Now on to your problems...
Start with the given sets:
Find their respective complement sets:
a) Simply combine the two sets A and B (and remove the duplicates) to get
--------------------------------------------------------
b) Now find all the common elements between the two sets to get
--------------------------------------------------------
c) Find all the common elements between the two sets A' and B' to get
--------------------------------------------------------
d) Combine the two sets A' and B' (and remove the duplicates) to get
--------------------------------------------------------
e) Now combine sets A and B':
I'll leave the last two to try on your own. Let me know if you still need help.
