Question 1131781:  Can someone please explain this to me? I am completely lost!
 
Thanks.
 
U = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,}  
A = {a, c, e, g, i} 
B = {b, d, f, h, j} 
C = {a, b, d}
 
1. Determine 𝐴′ ∩ 𝐵  
2. Determine (𝐴 ∪ 𝐶) − (𝐴 ∩ 𝐶)  
3. Determine Determine 𝐵′ ∩ 𝐶′

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! U = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,}  
A = {a, c, e, g, i} 
B = {b, d, f, h, j} 
C = {a, b, d}  
1. Determine 𝐴′ ∩ 𝐵  
2. Determine (𝐴 ∪ 𝐶) − (𝐴 ∩ 𝐶)  
3. Determine Determine 𝐵′ ∩ 𝐶′
 
 
The complement of a set  A, denoted by 𝐴′ , is the set of all elements that are in the universal set U but are not in A. 
 
𝐴′ ∩ 𝐵 ={b,d,f,h,j} 
B = {b, d, f, h, j}
 
intersection 𝐴′ ∩ 𝐵  is defined as the set consisting of the elements that are common in 𝐴′and B
 
=>𝐴′ ∩ 𝐵 ={b,d,f,h,j}
 
 
 
2. Determine (𝐴 ∪ 𝐶) − (𝐴 ∩ 𝐶) 
 
The union of two sets is a set containing all elements that are in A or in C 
if 
A = {a, c, e, g, i} 
C = {a, b, d} 
 => (𝐴 ∪ 𝐶)={a, b,c,d, e, g, i} 
=>(𝐴 ∩ 𝐶)  ={a}
 
(𝐴 ∪ 𝐶) − (𝐴 ∩ 𝐶)  ={a, b,c,d, e, g, i}-{a}={b,c,d, e, g, i}
 
 
 
3. Determine Determine 𝐵′ ∩ 𝐶′
 
 𝐵′  the new set gets everything that is in the universe but is outside of  B 
𝐶′ the new set gets everything that is in the universe but is outside of C
 
U = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j}  
B = {b, d, f, h, j} 
𝐵′ ={a,c,e,g,i}
 
U = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j} 
C = {a, b, d}  
𝐶′ ={c,e,f,g,h,i,j}
 
 
𝐵′ ∩ 𝐶′={a,c,e,g,i} ∩ {c,e,f,g,h,i,j}={e,g,i}
