Math Problem Statement
If A = {t, u, x, e, d, o, s} and U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z}, find A'.
Solution
To solve the problem in the image, we are tasked with finding , which represents the complement of set with respect to the universal set .
Definitions:
- Set :
- Universal Set :
The complement :
The complement consists of all elements in that are not in . To find :
- Subtract the elements of from .
- Elements in :
- Remove these from .
Step-by-step Calculation:
From : Remove , leaving:
