ACTIVITY # 2

Instruction/s: Answer the following items as indicated. Put your answers in the blank
spaces provided and avoid erasure/s.

1. List the elements of the following sets where 𝑃 = {1,2,3, … }

a. 𝐴 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 3 < 𝑥 < 12}
𝐴 = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}

b. 𝐵 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛, 𝑥 < 15}

𝐵 = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14, }

c. 𝐶 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 4 + 𝑥 = 3}
𝐶 = {}
d. 𝐷 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑎 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 5}
𝐷 = {5,10,15}

2. Consider the following sets:

∅, 𝐴 = {1}, 𝐵 = {1,3},𝐶 = {1,5,9}, 𝐷 = {1,2,3,4,5},
𝐸 = {1,3,5,7,9}, 𝑈 = {1,2, … ,8,9}
Insert the correct ⊆ or ⊈ between each pair of sets:

a. ∅ ⊈ 𝐴 c. 𝐵 ⊈ 𝐶 e. 𝐶 ⊈ 𝐷 g. 𝐷 ⊈ 𝐸
b. 𝐴 ⊆ 𝐵 d. 𝐵 ⊆ 𝐸 f. 𝐶 ⊆ 𝐸 h. 𝐷 ⊆ 𝑈

3. Determine the powerset of 𝐴, P(𝐴), of the set 𝐴 = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑}

P(A)= {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, }, {𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑 }, {𝑑, 𝑎, 𝑏, }, {𝑎, 𝑏, }, {𝑎, 𝑐 }, {𝑎, 𝑑 }, {𝑏, 𝑐 }, {𝑏, 𝑑 },
{𝑐, 𝑑 }, {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐 }, {𝑑 }
4. In a survey of 60 people, it was found that:
25 read Newsweek magazine 9 read both Newsweek and Fortune
26 read Time 11 read both Newsweek and Time
26 read Fortune 8 read both Time and Fortune
3 read the three magazines

Fill-in the correct number of people who read the magazines in the Venn
diagram.

5. Which of the following sets are equal?

𝐶 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 𝑥 < 3} 𝐸 = {1,2} 𝐺 = {3,1}
𝐷 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃, 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑑𝑑, 𝑥 < 5} 𝐹 = {1,2,1} 𝐻 = {1,1,3}

Answer: C=E=F and D=G=H
