Question

If A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {3, 4, 5, 6}, C = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and universal set X = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}, then verify the following:

n(B) = (A' ∩ B) + n(A ∩ B)

Sum

Solution

A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {3, 4, 5, 6}, C = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8},

X = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

The number of elements in B = {3, 4, 5, 6}

∴ n(B) = 4                      .....(i)

The complement of A includes all elements in X that are not in A:

A' = X - A

A' = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

The intersection of A′ and B includes elements that are in both A′ and B:

A' ∩ B = {5, 6}

∴ n (A' ∩ B) = 2

The intersection of A and B includes elements that are in both A and B:

A ∩ B = {3, 4}

∴ n (A ∩ B) = 2

∴ n (A' ∩ B) + n (A ∩ B) = 2 + 2 = 4                      ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

n(B) = (A' ∩ B) + n(A ∩ B)
