Exercise 3.1.2: Set membership and subsets - true or false, cont.


Use the definitions for the sets given below to determine whether each statement is true or false:




  • A = { x ∈ Z: x is an integer multiple of 3 }




  • B = { x ∈ Z: x is a perfect square }




  • C = { 4, 5, 9, 10 }




  • D = { 2, 4, 11, 14 }




  • E = { 3, 6, 9 }




  • F = { 4, 6, 16 }




An integer x is a perfect square if there is an integer y such that x = y2.


(a)15 ⊂ A


(b){15} ⊂ A


(c) ∅ ⊂ A


(d) A ⊆ A


(e) ∅ ∈ B


(f) A is an infinite set.


(g) B is a finite set.


(h) |E| = 3


(i) |E| = |F|



Exercise 3.1.3: Subset relationships between common numerical sets.


Indicate whether the statement is true or false.


(a) Z ⊂ R


(b) Z ⊆ R


(c) Z ⊆ R+


(d) N ⊂ R


(e) Z+ ⊂ N


Exercise 3.2.1: Sets of sets - true or false.


Let X = {1, {1}, {1, 2}, 2, {3}, 4 }. Which statements are true?


(a) 2 ∈ X


(b) {2} ⊆ X


(c) {2} ∈ X


(d) 3 ∈ X


(e) {1, 2} ∈ X


(f) {1, 2} ⊆ X


(g) {2, 4} ⊆ X


(h) {2, 4} ∈ X


(i) {2, 3} ⊆ X


(j) {2, 3} ∈ X


(k) |X| = 7


Exercise 3.3.1: Unions and intersections of sets.


Define the sets A, B, C, and D as follows:




  • A = {-3, 0, 1, 4, 17}




  • B = {-12, -5, 1, 4, 6}




  • C = {x ∈ Z: x is odd}




  • D = {x ∈ Z: x is positive}




For each of the following set expressions, if the corresponding set is finite, express the set using roster notation. Otherwise, indicate that the set is infinite.


(a) A ∪ B


(b) A ∩ B


(c) A ∩ C


(d) A ∪ (B ∩ C)


(e) A ∩ B ∩ C


(f) A ∪ C


(g) (A ∪ B) ∩ C


(h) A ∪ (C ∩ D)



Exercise 3.6.1: Cartesian product of three small sets.


The sets A, B, and C are defined as follows:




  • A = {tall, grande, venti}




  • B = {foam, no-foam}




  • C = {non-fat, whole}




Use the definitions for A, B, and C to answer the questions. Express the elements using n-tuple notation, not string notation.


(a) Write an element from the set A × B × C.


(b) Write an element from the set B × A × C.


(c) Write the set B × C using roster notation.

Exercise 3.1.2: Set membership and subsets - true or false, cont.
Use the definitions for the sets
given below to determine whether each statement is true or false:
· A = { x ∈ Z: x is an integer multiple of 3 }
· B = { x ∈ Z: x is a perfect square }
· C = { 4, 5, 9, 10 }
· D = { 2, 4, 11, 14 }
· E = { 3, 6, 9 }
· F = { 4, 6, 16 }
An integer x is a perfect square if there is an integer y such that x = y2.
(a)15 ⊂ A. False because 15 is not a set.
(b){15} ⊂ A.
(c) ∅ ⊂ A . True because null set is always a subset of every set.
(d) A ⊆ A. True each set is contained in itself.
(e) ∅ ∈ B. True because null set is always a subset of every set
(f) A is an infinite set. True because contains infinite elements
(g) B is a finite set. False because perfect square are infinite.
(h) |E| = 3 . True if you mean cardinality of E i.e. n(E)
(i) |E| = |F|. True because both have...
