Question 434054: Select the statement that is not true
A{l,a,t,e,r} B={l,a,t,e} C= {t,a,l,e} D= {e,a,t} E= {t,e,a}
I tried to solve the problem on my own and I came up with d={e,a,t,}E={t,e,a} not is true? Is this correct?

NO!
{e,a,t} = {t,e,a} = {a,t,e} = {a,e,t} = {e,t,a} = (t,a,e}}
All those are equal because they all have the EXACT same elements.
The order in which they are listed does not matter. Also, it doesn't
matter if an element is listed more than once. {e,a,t} = {e,e,t,a,a,t,t,e}
{l,a,t,e} = {t,a,l,e} is true
However
{l,a,t,e,r} does NOT equal {l,a,t,e}
{l,a,t,e,r} does NOT equal {t,a,l,e}
because the first set contains the element r and the second one doesn't.
However
{l,a,t,e,r} = {a,l,t,e,r} is true.
