Let \(A=\{1,2,3,4,5\}\) and \(B=\{2,4,5,7\}\) be two sets containing natural numbers. Find the sets: \(A\cup B\), \(A\cap B\), \(A-B\), \(B-A\).
Given three sets \(A,B,C\). Prove that if we take a union \(A\cup B\) and intersect it with the set \(C\), we will get the same set as if we took a union of \(A\cap C\) and \(B\cap C\). Essentially, prove that \((A\cup B)\cap C = (A\cap C)\cup (B\cap C)\).
\(A,B\) and \(C\) are three sets. Prove that if we take an intersection \(A\cap B\) and unite it with the set \(C\), we will get the same set as if we took an intersection of two unions \(A\cup C\) and \(B\cup C\). Essentially, prove that \((A\cap B)\cup C = (A\cup C)\cap (B\cup C)\). Draw a Venn diagram for the set \((A\cap B)\cup C\).
Let \(A,B\) and \(C\) be three sets. Prove that if we take an intersection \(A\cap B\) and intersect it with the set \(C\), we will get the same set as if we took an intersection of \(A\) with \(B\cap C\). Essentially, prove that it does not matter where to put the brackets in \((A\cap B)\cap C = A\cap (B\cap C)\). Draw a Venn diagram for the set \(A\cap B\cap C\).
Prove the same for the union \((A\cup B)\cup C = A\cup (B\cup C) = A\cup B\cup C\).
For three sets \(A,B,C\) prove that \(A - (B\cup C) = (A-B)\cap (A-C)\). Draw a Venn diagram for this set.
For three sets \(A,B,C\) prove that \(A - (B\cap C) = (A-B)\cup (A-C)\). Draw a Venn diagram for this set.
How many subsets of \(\{1, 2, . . . , n\}\) are there of even size?
In how many ways can \(\{1, . . . , n\}\) be written as the union of two sets? Here, for example, \(\{1, 2, 3, 4\}\cup\{4, 5\}\) and \(\{4, 5\}\cup\{1, 2, 3, 4\}\) count as the same way of writing \(\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}\) as a union.
Prove for any natural number \(n\) that \((n + 1)(n + 2). . .(2n)\) is divisible by \(2^n\).
Consider a set of natural numbers \(A\), consisting of all numbers divisible by \(6\), let \(B\) be the set of all natural numbers divisible by \(8\), and \(C\) be the set of all natural numbers divisible by \(12\). Describe the sets \(A\cup B\), \(A\cup B\cup C\), \(A\cap B\cap C\), \(A-(B\cap C)\).
