SOLUTIONS
three methods to represent sets - fcorrect answer- word description, roster method
and set builder
the empty set - fcorrect answer- the null set, set that contains no elements ( ) or 0/
what are elements - fcorrect answer- elements are objects of the set
Sets - fcorrect answer- sets are collection of objects whose contents can clearly be
determined
Intersection definition and notation - fcorrect answer- The intersection of sets A and B
is the set of elements common to both set A and B. See note card for notation and
set builder notation
The formula for the cardinal number of the union of two finite sets - fcorrect answer- n
( A U B ) = n(A) plus n(B) - n (A intersect B )
what are disjoint sets - fcorrect answer- 2 sets that have no elements together
de morgans law (two laws) - fcorrect answer- 1. the complement of the intersection of
2 sets is the union of the complement of those sets (A intersect B)' = A' U B'
