List members of following sets

Question

Let Universal set=U= {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l},

V={a,e,i,f,h,l}

W={a,c,e,g,i,l}

 

List the members of the following sets.

VUW

V∩W

VUW'

V'∩W'

Answer 1

U = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l}
V = {a,e,i,f,h,l}
W = {a,c,e,g,i,l}

• VUW is the union or combination of sets V with set W = {a, c, e, f, g, i, l}
• V∩W is the intersection of sets V and W = members that they have in common = {a, e, i, l}
• VUW' is the union of set V and set W'.  W' = U - W = subtract members of set W from set U = {b,d,f,h,j.k}.  So VUW' is the union or combination of V and W' = {a,b,c,e,f,h,j,k,l}
• V'∩W'   Can you do this one?  V' = U-V and W' = U-W.  Then V'∩W' are the members that sets V' and W' have in common.
