Math Problem Statement

Let 𝐴 = {π‘₯ ∢ π‘₯ ∈ ℝ, π‘₯ β‰₯ 10} and B = {π‘₯: π‘₯ ∈ ℝ , π‘₯ β‰₯ 15}. Then 𝐴 ∩ 𝐡

Solution

To find the intersection of sets AA and BB, we need to identify the elements that are common to both sets.

Given:

  • A={x∣x∈R,xβ‰₯10}A = \{x \mid x \in \mathbb{R}, x \geq 10\}
  • B={x∣x∈R,xβ‰₯15}B = \{x \mid x \in \mathbb{R}, x \geq 15\}

The intersection of AA and BB is denoted by A∩BA \cap B, which represents the set of elements that are in both AA and BB.

Since BB includes all real numbers xx that are greater than or equal to 15, and AA includes all real numbers xx that are greater than or equal to 10, the intersection will be the set of all xx that are greater than or equal to 15, as this is the more restrictive condition.

Therefore:

A∩B={x∣x∈R,xβ‰₯15}A \cap B = \{x \mid x \in \mathbb{R}, x \geq 15\}

  3. What is the complement of the intersection A∩BA \cap B in the set of real numbers?
  4. How does the intersection change if AA and BB are defined over a different domain, like integers Z\mathbb{Z}?
  5. What happens to A∩BA \cap B if A={x∣x∈R,xβ‰₯5}A = \{x \mid x \in \mathbb{R}, x \geq 5\} and BB remains the same?
  6. What is the difference between AA and BB sets, Aβˆ’BA - B?
  7. How do you express the intersection of three sets, A∩B∩CA \cap B \cap C?
  8. What is the symmetric difference between sets AA and BB?

Tip: When working with set operations, it is helpful to visualize the sets on a number line or using a Venn diagram to better understand their relationships.
