lesson 6 Flashcards
is an unordered collection of objects, called elements.
Sets
is used to present elements inside the bracket.
Roster Method
describes the set by its property.
Set Former Notation
Is the size of a set.
Cardinality
is the set of all subsets of the set S. Denoted by P(S).
Power set
product is the set of all ordered pairs (a, b) denoted by A × B
where a ∈ A and b ∈ B.
Cartesian product
The – of the sets A and B, denoted by
A ∪ B, is the set that contains those elements that are either in A or in B, or
in both.
union
Let A and B be sets. The – of the sets A and B, denoted by A ∩ B, is the set containing those elements in both A and B.
intersection
Two sets are called – if their intersection is the empty set.
disjoint
The – of A and B, denoted by A −
B, is the set containing those elements that are in A but not in B.
difference
Let U be the universal set. The–of the set A, denoted by Aҧ, is the complement of A with respect to U. Therefore, the – of the set A is U − A.
