I hope this helps, I am horrible at unions and intersections, http://prntscr.com/5t2d2o From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_symbols
Thank you!
Wait for ganesh's response though, I'm sure it will be awesome :)
\(A \subseteq B \) means every element of A is in B but there can be some other elements in B that are not part of A
@ganeshie8 Would you mind helping me with something else, please?
wil try, ask..
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} C = {1, 5, 6, 7, 9} A ∪ (B ∩ C) = {1, 5, 7, 9} {1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9} {1, 5, 6, 7, 9}
\(B \cap C\) is the set with elements common to both B and C
start by finding that ^
look at the sets B and C are there any common elements ?
It would be 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10
not quite
only take the elements that exist in both set A and set B
But you said to find the elements in B and C
find the "common" elements in B and C
6?
Yes! only that \(B\cap C = \{6\}\)
union that wid set A
Okay, but what about the other part? I don't understand unions and intersections when parentheses get involved. Lol
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} \(B\cap C = \{6\}\)
union of two sets is just another set with elements that exist in either one of the sets simply take all the elements for union
Would it be 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9?
Yes!
Okay, thank you so much! I still don't quite understand it that well, though.
