What is A X B ? is it like A union B ?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A multiply by B

OpenStudy (amistre64):

AxB produces a set of ordered pairs (a,b) AuB produces a set of elements of A+B AnB produces a set of elements that A and B have in common

OpenStudy (jenniferjuice):

so a set of ordered pairs. ?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yes, spose we have the set X={-1,0,1,2,3} and Y={0,1,2,3,4} XxY is the set of all ordered pairs (x,y) that can be made:

OpenStudy (amistre64):

-1, {0,1,2,3,4} is 5 points 0, {0,1,2,3,4} is 5 points 1, {0,1,2,3,4} is 5 points 2, {0,1,2,3,4} is 5 points 3, {0,1,2,3,4} is 5 points for a total set of 25 points

OpenStudy (amistre64):

X union Y would just be the set; { -1,0,1,2,3,4}

OpenStudy (jenniferjuice):

so if i have this Let A = {circle, square} and let B = {3, 4, 5}. Find A X B.

OpenStudy (jenniferjuice):

would it be {(circle, 3), (circle, 4), (circle, 5), (square, 3), (square, 4), (square, 5)}

OpenStudy (amistre64):

exactly

OpenStudy (jenniferjuice):

ahhh i see K thanks!
