Suppose U = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} is the universal set and Q={3,6,9} What is Q? Can someone help me out with this?

OpenStudy (midhun.madhu1987):

What do u need to find?? Q or complement of Q?

hartnn (hartnn):

or do u need to describe Q ? like here, Q is the SUBSET of U

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here let me give you guys the answer set.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{3, 6, 9} {4, 5, 7, 8} {1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10} {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

hartnn (hartnn):

yup, then the question is to find \(Q'\)

OpenStudy (midhun.madhu1987):

Yes... it is the complement of Q that you need to find. Complement of Q = Elements of Universal set - Elements of Q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, How do I figure this out then??

hartnn (hartnn):

to find complement of a set, you consider all those elements from universal set, which are NOT in the set. so here, find all the elements in U which are not in Q
