Find A ∪ B and A ∩ B for the following sets.
i. A = {0, 1, 2, 4, 6} and B = {−3, −1, 0, 2, 4, 5}
ii. A = {2, 4, 6, 8} and B = Φ
iii.
and B = {x : x is a prime number less than 11}
iv.
and ![]()
![]()
i. A = {0, 1, 2, 4, 6}
B = {-3, -1, 0, 2, 4, 5}
∴ A ∪ B = {-3, -1, 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6} [elements that are present in either A or B]
∴ A ∩ B = {0, 2, 4} [elements that are present in both A and B]
ii. A = {2, 4, 6, 8} and B = Φ
∴ A ∪ B = {2, 4, 6, 8} [elements that are present in either A or B]
∴ A ∩ B = Φ [elements that are present in both A and B]
iii. A = {x : x ∈ N, x ≤ 5}
∴ A contains the Natural numbers that are less than or equal to 5.
∴ A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {x : x is a prime number less than 11}
Prime numbers less than 11 are : 2, 3, 5, 7
∴ B = {2, 3, 5, 7}
∴ A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7} [elements that are present in either A or B]
∴ A ∩ B = {2, 3, 5} [elements that are present in both A and B]
iv. A = {x : x ∈ N, 2 < x ≤ 7}
∴ A contains the Natural numbers that are greater than 2 and less than equal to 7
∴ A = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
B = {x : x ∈ W, 0≤ x ≤ 6}
∴ B contains the whole numbers that are greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 6.
∴ B = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴ A ∪ B = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} [elements that are present in either A or B]
∴ A ∩ B = {3, 4, 5, 6} [elements that are present in both A and B]
