prove: B-(B-A)=AintersectingB

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

hmmmm I can demonstrate this using venn diagrams but I doubt that is sufficient

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

@dan815 How can we solve this with a mathematical approach?

OpenStudy (freckles):

Make a truth table

OpenStudy (dan815):

wanna hang out?

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[B-A=B\cap A^{c}\]

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[B-(B-A)=B-B\cap A^{c}=B\cap (B\cap A^{c})^c\]

OpenStudy (swissgirl):

ahhhh yeaaaaa I remember doing this stuff

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[B\cap (B\cap A^{c})^c=B\cap (B^c\cup A)=(B\cap B^c)\cup(B\cap A)\] \[=\emptyset\cup (B\cap A)=B\cap A\]
