Given the following Venn diagrams, represent
X
Y
and
X
Y
using words, roster method, and set notation, if possible.
|
Union
|
|
Words:
|
The union of
X
and
Y
is the natural numbers from 1 to 10.
|
Roster:
|
X
Y
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
|
Set Notation:
|
X
Y
= {
x
|
x
10,
x
N
}
|
Intersection
|
|
Words:
|
The intersection of
X
and
Y
is the numbers 4 and 5.
|
Roster:
|
X
Y
= {4, 5}
|
Set Notation:
|
X
Y
= {
x
|
x
= 4, 5}
|
Union
|
|
Words:
|
The union of
X
and
Y
is the letters of the alphabet H to R.
|
Roster:
|
X
Y
= {H, I , J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R}
|
Set Notation:
|
It is not possible to write this in set notation.
|
Intersection
|
|
Words:
|
The intersection of
X
and
Y
is the empty set because they are disjoint.
|
Roster:
|
Because
X
Y
is the empty set, there are no elements to list.
|
Set Notation:
|
X
Y =
or
X
Y =
{}
