.

The universal set  U  = {-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, by its definition.


The set  A%5Ec  is THE COMPLEMENT  of the set A to the universal set U.


In other words,  A%5Ec  consists of all elements of the universal set U that do not belong to A:


    A%5Ec = {-5, -4, -2, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}.      ANSWER
