- Consider the following statement. If U denotes a universal set, then UC = 0. Construct a proof for the statement by selecting sentences from the following scrambled list and putting them in the correct order. Use the element method for proving that a set equals the empty set. Let U be a universal set and suppose UC + Ø. So, by definition of complement x EU. Thus x EU and x € U, which is a contradiction. Then there exists an element x in UC. But, by definition of a universal set, U contains all elements under discussion, and so x E U. Let U be a universal set and suppose UC - 0. So, by definition of complement x ¢ U. But, by definition of a universal set, UC contains no elements. Proof by contradiction: Select-- 2 Select- Select 4. --Select- 5. -Select 6. Hence the supposition is false, and so UC = 0. Need Help?

- Prove that for sets A and B, AUB= An B. This is one of the De Morgan's laws for sets.arrow_forwardConsider the following statement. Assume that all sets are subsets of a universal set U. For all sets A and B, if A C B then B C A°. Use an element argument to construct a proof for the statement by putting selected sentences from the following scrambled list in the correct order. Therefore, by definition of complement x E A, and thus, by definition of subset, B CA. Hence, x € A, because A NB = 0. By definition of complement, x € B. Suppose A and B are any sets such that AC B, and suppose x E B. If x were in A, then x would have to be in B by definition of subset. But x B, and so x A. Suppose A and B are any sets such that A C B, and suppose x E B. Proof: 1. .--Select--- 2.---Select--- 3. --Select--- 4. |--Select---arrow_forward6.
