a. Let X = {a, b, c}, Y = {a, c, b}, and Z = {a, b, b, c, c, c}. What are the elements of X, Y, and Z? How are X,
Y,and Z related?
X, Y and Z have exactly the same three elements (a,b,c). Therefore, X, Y and Z are simply
different ways to represent the same set.
The set {a, {a, b}, {a} has two elements: a and the set whose only element is b.
c. For each positive integer x, let Ax = {x, x 2}. Find A1, a2 and A3.
Given that R denotes the set of all real numbers, Z the set of all integers, and Z - the set of all negative
integers, describe each of the following sets.
{x ∈ R| − 5 < x < 1} is the open interval of real numbers between -2 and 5. It is pictured as follows.
a.
b. {x ∈ Z| − 5 < x < 1} is the set off all integers between -2 and 5. It is equal to the set {-4, -3, -2, -1, 0}
c. {x ∈ Z- | − 5 < x < 1} since all the integers in Z- are negative {x ∈ Z- | - 5< x < 1} = {-4, -3, -2, -1}.
3. Subsets
Let A = {2,{2}, (√2)2} , B = {2,{2},{{2}}} and C = {2}. Evaluate the truth and falsity of the following
statements.
a. A ⊆ B
b. B ⊆ A
c. A is a proper subset of B
True. Each element in A are all real numbers and hence in B, but there are elements in A that are
not in B. For instance, (√2)² is in A but not in B.
d. C ⊆ B
e. C is a proper subset of A
4. Let Y = {0, ,1,2} and Z = {0,1} and define a relation R from A to B as follows: Given any {x, y} ∈ Y x Z,
x+ y
(x, y) ∈ R means that is an integer.
2
0+0 0
(0,0) ∈ R because = = 0, which is an integer
2 2
0+1 1
(0,1) ∈ R because = , which is not an integer
2 2
1+ 0 1
(1,0) ∈ R because = , which is not an integer
2 2
1+ 1 2
(1,1) ∈ R because = = 1, which is an integer
2 2
2+ 0 2
(2,0) ∈ R because = = 1, which is an integer
2 2
2+ 1 3
(2,1) ∈ R because = , which is not an integer
2 2
a. State explicitly which ordered pairs are in Y x Z and which are in R.
b. Is 1 R 0? Is 2 R 0? Is 2 R 1?
The domain of R { 0, 1, 2}
Co-domain are { 0, 1}
5. Define relation C from R to R as follows: For any (x, y) ∈ R x R, (x, y) ∈ C means that x2+y2 = 4
1 1
a. Is (0,2) ∈ C? Is (−1, −1) ∈ C? Is ( ,
2 2 )∈ C? Is −2 C 1? Is (0 C 1)? Is −1 C 2?
Yes, (0, 2) ∈ C because 02+ 22 = 4
The domain ang co-domain of C are both R, the set of all real numbers.
