#5:

Solutions:

Your answer may vary:

Let A = {1,2,3} and B = {3,4,5}

a) A ∩ B = {3}: The intersection of two sets is a set that contains

all elements that are common to both

b) A ∪ B = {1,2,3,4,5}: The union of two sets is a set that

contains all elements of both sets.

Your answer may vary: Let U = {1,2,3,4,5} and A = {1,2}

c) A' = {3,4,5}: The complement of a set is a set that contains all

elements of U (universal set) that are not elements of the set

under consideration.
