Please help.. a) 7 ɛ {7,11,17} b) 0 ɛ ∅ c) 7 ∉ {7} d) {11} ɛ {11} are they true or false?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

a) Is 7 in the set {7, 11, 17} ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it true, true, false, true?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

a) \(7 \in \{7,11,17\}\) read this as follows: 7 is an element of the set including 7,,11 and 17 t/f?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Everything but your answer for b is correct. Remember the empty set has nothing in it...not even zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so true, false, false, true? lol :)

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[0 \in ∅\]\[∅=\{\}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):
