Math Problem Statement

(A U B U C)’

Solution

The expression (ABC)(A \cup B \cup C)' represents the complement of the union of sets AA, BB, and CC. To break it down:

  1. Union: The union ABCA \cup B \cup C represents all elements that are in AA, BB, or CC (or any combination of these sets).

  2. Complement: The complement of the union (ABC)(A \cup B \cup C)' includes all elements that are not in the union. In other words, it consists of elements that do not belong to any of the sets AA, BB, or CC.

If you are working within a universal set UU, the result is:

(ABC)=U(ABC)(A \cup B \cup C)' = U - (A \cup B \cup C)

This is the set of all elements in the universal set that are not in AA, BB, or CC.

Would you like more details or examples on this? Here are some related questions:

  1. What is the result of (AB)(A \cup B)' in set theory?
  2. How is the intersection of sets (AB)(A \cap B)' handled?
  3. What is the complement of the intersection (ABC)(A \cap B \cap C)'?
  4. Can you explain De Morgan's laws for set operations?
  5. How do you find the symmetric difference between two sets?

Tip: In set theory, the complement refers to elements outside the set, often within a defined universal set.
