• Independent Variables – called the predictor variable
• Joint Sets - two or more sets with at least one common elements
Ex. A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} B = {0, 5, 6, 7, 8}
• Equivalent Sets - two or more sets with same number of elements
Ex. A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} B = {6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
Example:
A = {1, 2, 3} B= {4, 5, 6} A U B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6)
• Intersection of Sets
- intersection of two sets is simply the elements that are common to the
two sets
- intersection in denoted by the symbol ∩ (A∩B)
Example:
A = {1, 2, 3, 4} B = {2, 5, 6, 7} A∩B = {2}
• Difference of Sets
- the difference of two sets is the elements resulted when the elements
common two the two sets are subtracted from the minuend set.
A – B:
Examples:
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
A – B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 11}
B – A: B – A = {4, 6, 8, 10}
• Complement (U’)
- complement of sets is the elements found in the universal set that is
not found in any of the subsets of the universal set.
Example:
A = {odd numbers less than 15} {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13}
B = {prime numbers less than 15} {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13}
U = {numbers less than 15} {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14}
U’ = {4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14}

• The universal set is composed of the letters in the English Alphabet while the
other set are as follows:
A = {vowels}
B = {consonants}
Find the following:
a. A’ b. B’ c. B – A d. A – B
e. (B – A)’ f. B U A g. B ∩ A h. (B U A)’
