If A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15}, what is A union B?

OpenStudy (dan815):

union means or

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

All the numbers in both sets

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (dan815):

xD

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

1,2,3,4,5,6,12,15

OpenStudy (goformit100):

A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15} A union B = {1,2,3,4,5,6,12,15} union means all sets in one set. :)

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

3 is the intersection @str

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

Union means unite everything together

OpenStudy (dan815):

this is probably being too picky but i dont think u can think of it like means all set in one set

OpenStudy (dan815):

then ud have 2, 3s in this set

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

All elements from both sets combined to one set

OpenStudy (dan815):

yeah

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

We never repeat numbers in a set so that does not matter

OpenStudy (dan815):

oh i see

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

{A1,1,2,3} does not make sense

OpenStudy (dan815):

why not

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

Think of listing the range of f(x)=3

OpenStudy (dan815):

soo 3?

OpenStudy (dan815):

but i thought u can have anything u want in a set

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

Its {3} not a set of infinite threes

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

We never repeat elements in a set by deffinition

OpenStudy (dan815):

i think programming has ruined my definition of set then

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

Lol

OpenStudy (dan815):

what if u said your set was the definition of the Fibonacci sequence

OpenStudy (dan815):

or the factorials going from 0 to 3

OpenStudy (dan815):

wud repeating numbers still be illegal in that set?
