Question
**Title: Set Theory Exercise: Listing Elements of Sets**

**Instructions:** List the elements of the following sets.

**a) M**  
- Description: The set of letters in the word "mathematics."  
- Note: There are not 11 elements in the set.

**b) M - B**  
- Defined: M is as described above.  
- B = {a, e, i, o, u}  
- Operation: List elements in M that are not in B.

**c) A ∪ B**  
- Defined: B is as above and A = {s, e, t}  
- Operation: Find the union of sets A and B.

**d) (A - B) ⊂ C**  
- Description: For A and B defined above, determine if (A - B) is a subset of C.  
- C = The letters in the word "Sarina."

**e) Aᶜ**  
- Description: The complement of set A when the universal set X = {a, b, c, d, ..., m}.

**f) {x ∈ Reals | x² + 6x + 8 = 0}**  
- Description: List the real numbers x that satisfy the equation x² + 6x + 8 = 0.

Step 1

As per rule we will solve only first three subparts.

a)Given M is the set of lettes in the word 'mathematics'.The word mathematics has 8 distinct letters m,a,t,h,e,i,c,sSo         M={m,a,t,h,e,i,c,s}
