ξ={x:x is an integer,  4≤x≤16}\xi = \{x : x \text{ is an integer},\; 4 \le x \le 16\} A={4,9,16}A = \{4, 9, 16\} B={4,6,7,8,9,10,16}B = \{4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 16\}

  1. (a)

    Draw a Venn diagram showing ξ\xi, AA and BB and place each of the elements in the appropriate part of the diagram.

  2. (b)

    Describe the elements in set A.

  3. (c)

    List the element(s) contained in the set A∩B′A \cap B^{\prime}.

Worked solution

18(a)

1. Recognise the relationship between sets $A$ and $B$ and draw the correct Venn diagram structure.

Since
A={4,9,16}A=\{4,9,16\}
and every element of AA is also in
B={4,6,7,8,9,10,16},B=\{4,6,7,8,9,10,16\},
we have A⊂BA\subset B.

So draw a rectangle for ξ\xi, a circle BB inside the rectangle, and a smaller circle AA completely inside circle BB.

2. Place every element of the universal set in the correct region.

The elements in AA are
4,9,16.4,9,16.

The elements in BB but not in AA are
6,7,8,10.6,7,8,10.

The elements in ξ\xi but not in BB are
5,11,12,13,14,15.5,11,12,13,14,15.

Answer

Draw a rectangle labelled ξ\xi with a circle BB inside it and a smaller circle AA completely inside BB.

  • In AA: 4,9,164, 9, 16
  • In BB but outside AA: 6,7,8,106, 7, 8, 10
  • In ξ\xi but outside BB: 5,11,12,13,14,155, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

18(b)

1. Recognise the elements of set $A$ and describe their common property.

A={4,9,16}A=\{4,9,16\}.

These are square numbers:
4=22,9=32,16=42.4=2^2,\quad 9=3^2,\quad 16=4^2.

Answer

The elements in set AA are the square numbers from 44 to 1616 inclusive.

18(c)

1. Identify that all elements of $A$ are also in $B$, so no element of $A$ is outside $B$.

A={4,9,16}A = \{4,9,16\} and B={4,6,7,8,9,10,16}B = \{4,6,7,8,9,10,16\}.

Since 4,9,164,9,16 are all in BB, there are no elements that are in AA but not in BB.

Therefore,
A∩B′=∅.A \cap B' = \varnothing.

Answer

A∩B′=∅A \cap B' = \varnothing
