{6} (with a sign that looks like a c and e together) {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} need to know if the statement is true or false. if false, explain
i dont understand ur question can u attach/draw it so i can get a clear view
yeah give me just a sec
true
in other words the question is asking if 6 is an element of the set (1,2,3,4,5,6,7)
The relation "is an element of", also called set membership, is denoted by the symbol "∈".
the answer in the back of the book says false, but i dont have an explanation as to why its false
it's true that sign means ' is a element of' and the numbers in the parentheses is called a set as you see 6 is included in th set
oh hold - sorry it is false because [6] is the 'set 6 ' not 6
6 is an element of the set but the set {6} is not
ah okay so if it was 6 by itself it would be true, but since it's 1-7 it makes it false?
if {6} was an element then the big set might be {1,2,3,4,5, {6}, 7 } then {6} would be a sub set I'm the big set
* sub set of the big set
ah okay that makes sense
anyway false is correct
okay thank you
