Math Problem Statement

Which pair of sets are equal? Choose all correct answers.

Solution

The question asks which pairs of sets are equal. Let's analyze each pair from the provided options:

  1. ABA' \cup B' and (AB)(A \cap B)'

    • De Morgan's Law: (AB)=AB(A \cap B)' = A' \cup B'.
    • Conclusion: This pair is equal.
  2. ABA' \cap B' and (AB)(A \cup B)'

    • De Morgan's Law: (AB)=AB(A \cup B)' = A' \cap B'.
    • Conclusion: This pair is equal.
  3. ABA \cap B' and (AB)(A \cup B)'

    • (AB)=AB(A \cup B)' = A' \cap B', but ABA \cap B' is not the same as ABA' \cap B'.
    • Conclusion: This pair is not equal.
  4. ABA' \cup B and (AB)(A \cap B)'

    • (AB)=AB(A \cap B)' = A' \cup B', but ABA' \cup B is not the same as ABA' \cup B'.
    • Conclusion: This pair is not equal.

Correct Answers:

  • Option 1: ABA' \cup B' and (AB)(A \cap B)' are equal.
  • Option 2: ABA' \cap B' and (AB)(A \cup B)' are equal.
