Solution

Let's solve the problems in this assignment step by step:


1. Verify the given set theory identity:

Given:

  • A={1,3,5}A = \{1, 3, 5\}
  • B={2,4,6,8}B = \{2, 4, 6, 8\}
  • C={2,5,10}C = \{2, 5, 10\}
  • U={1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10}U = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10\}

Verify:

  1. (AB)C=ACBC(A \cap B)^C = A^C \cup B^C
  2. (AB)C=ACBC(A \cup B)^C = A^C \cap B^C

Solution:

For the universal set UU, the complement of any set XX is defined as: XC=UXX^C = U - X

(a) (AB)C=ACBC(A \cap B)^C = A^C \cup B^C

  1. Compute AB=A \cap B = \emptyset (no common elements between AA and BB).
    So, (AB)C=U=U={1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10}(A \cap B)^C = U - \emptyset = U = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10\}.

  2. Compute AC=UA={2,4,6,8,9,10}A^C = U - A = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10\}.
    Compute BC=UB={1,3,5,9,10}B^C = U - B = \{1, 3, 5, 9, 10\}.
    Compute ACBC={2,4,6,8,9,10}{1,3,5,9,10}=UA^C \cup B^C = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10\} \cup \{1, 3, 5, 9, 10\} = U.

(b) (AB)C=ACBC(A \cup B)^C = A^C \cap B^C

  1. Compute AB={1,2,3,4,5,6,8}A \cup B = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8\}.
    So, (AB)C=U(AB)={9,10}(A \cup B)^C = U - (A \cup B) = \{9, 10\}.

  2. From above:

    • AC={2,4,6,8,9,10}A^C = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10\}
    • BC={1,3,5,9,10}B^C = \{1, 3, 5, 9, 10\}
      Compute ACBC={9,10}A^C \cap B^C = \{9, 10\}.

Hence, both identities are verified.


2. Composition of Functions

Given:

  • f(x)=x+1f(x) = x + 1
  • g(x)=2xg(x) = 2x

Find:

  1. fg(x)f \circ g(x)
  2. gf(x)g \circ f(x)

Solution:

  1. fg(x)=f(g(x))=f(2x)=2x+1f \circ g(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x) = 2x + 1.
  2. gf(x)=g(f(x))=g(x+1)=2(x+1)=2x+2g \circ f(x) = g(f(x)) = g(x + 1) = 2(x + 1) = 2x + 2.

3. Adjacency Matrix of the Graph

The graph has 5 vertices (V1,V2,V3,V4,V5V_1, V_2, V_3, V_4, V_5) with edges as indicated.

Adjacency Matrix:

The adjacency matrix AA is a 5x5 matrix where A[i][j]=1A[i][j] = 1 if there is an edge between ViV_i and VjV_j, otherwise A[i][j]=0A[i][j] = 0.

From the graph:

  • V1V_1 is connected to V2,V3V_2, V_3
  • V2V_2 is connected to V1,V3,V5V_1, V_3, V_5
  • V3V_3 is connected to V1,V2,V4V_1, V_2, V_4
  • V4V_4 is connected to V3,V5V_3, V_5
  • V5V_5 is connected to V2,V4V_2, V_4
0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$$ --- Let me know if you want any part elaborated further! Here are **5 follow-up questions** and a **tip**: ### Follow-up Questions: 1. Can you prove De Morgan's laws in set theory using Venn diagrams? 2. What happens if $$A \cap C \neq \emptyset$$ in question 1? Would the proof change? 3. Can you compute $$f \circ f(x)$$ or $$g \circ g(x)$$ for the functions in question 2? 4. What is the degree of each vertex in the graph? How is it related to the adjacency matrix? 5. Can you explain how to represent a weighted graph using an adjacency matrix? ### Tip: When solving set theory problems, always compute intermediate steps like complements and intersections carefully to avoid errors in complex identities.
