Math Problem Statement

(A ∪ B)′ ∩ C.

Solution

The expression (AB)C(A \cup B)' \cap C represents a set-theoretic operation involving the union, complement, and intersection of sets. Here's a breakdown of how to evaluate this:

  1. ABA \cup B: This is the union of sets AA and BB, which includes all elements that are in either AA, BB, or both.

  2. (AB)(A \cup B)': This represents the complement of ABA \cup B, which includes all elements not in the union of AA and BB. In other words, it contains elements that are outside both AA and BB.

  3. (AB)C(A \cup B)' \cap C: Now, this is the intersection of (AB)(A \cup B)' with CC. This means we're looking for all elements that are in CC, but also not in ABA \cup B.

Interpretation:

  • You're finding elements that belong to set CC but do not belong to either set AA or set BB.

If you have specific sets for AA, BB, and CC, you can directly compute the resulting set.

Would you like a detailed example with specific sets or further clarification?


Relative Questions:

  1. How is the union of sets AA and BB different from their intersection?
  2. What is the difference between a complement and an intersection in set theory?
  3. Can you give an example where AB=ABA \cup B = A \cap B?
  4. What are De Morgan's laws in set theory, and how do they apply here?
  5. How would the operation change if we used ABA \cap B instead of ABA \cup B?

Tip: Always use Venn diagrams when working with set operations to visually interpret the relationships!
