<EXERCISE> Answer Exercise 2
Let U be a universal set and A and B be subsets of U defined as
follows.
U = {1,2,3,4,5}
A = {1,2,3}
B = {2,3,4}
Find A’, A ꓵ B, A U B, B – A
<EXERCISE> Answer Exercise 2
Let U be a universal set and A and B be subsets of U defined as
follows.
U = {1,2,3,4,5}
A = {1,2,3}
B = {2,3,4}
Find A’, A ꓵ B, A U B, B – A
A’ = {4, 5}
A ꓵ B = {2, 3}
A U B = {1, 2, 3, 4}
B – A = {4}

Domain and Range
• The domain is all the x-values.
• The range is all the y-values.
{(2, –3), (4, 6), (3, –1), (6, 6), (2, 3)}
domain: {2, 3, 4, 6}

Let’s try this.
Find
B U C = {4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11}
B ꓵ C = {9}
B – C = {4, 6, 7}
C – B = {5, 11}
