Math Problem Statement

What are the elements of the complement of set A if : U = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}, A = { 1, 3, 5 }, B = { 2, 4, 6}, and C = {0. 7}?

(1 Point)

{2,4,6}

{0,2,4,6,7}

{1,3,5}

{0,7}

Solution

The complement of a set AA (denoted as AA' or AcA^c) with respect to the universal set UU consists of all elements in UU that are not in AA.

Given:

  • U={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7}U = \{ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 \}
  • A={1,3,5}A = \{ 1, 3, 5 \}

To find AA', we need to identify the elements in UU that are not in AA.

Elements in UU but not in AA are:

A={0,2,4,6,7}A' = \{ 0, 2, 4, 6, 7 \}

Therefore, the correct answer is:

{0,2,4,6,7}\{0, 2, 4, 6, 7\}

Answer: {0, 2, 4, 6, 7}
