Math Problem Statement
Let A = {3, 9}, B = {9, 19, 21}, D = {36} and S = sample space = A ∪ B ∪ D. Identify Ac ∩ B.
Solution
To solve this, we need to identify the complement of set , denoted by , and find its intersection with set .
Step 1: Find the union of sets , , and .
The sample space is the union of , , and :
Step 2: Determine the complement of , denoted by .
The complement consists of all elements in the sample space that are not in . So:
Step 3: Find the intersection .
Now, we calculate the intersection of and : The intersection is:
