    2)

    Algebra Benchmarks and Indicators

    You will write sets and identify subsets


    you will find the complement of the set

    Lesson

    CCSM Standard: A.REI.3


    Solve linear equations and
    inequalities in one variable,
    including equations with
    coefficients represented by
    letters.

    Part 1: Getting Ready!


    1) Most numbers on a telephone keypad correspond to a set of letters. Suppose youre sending a text message. You
    press 4,6,6, and 3 in that order-one number for each letter. What word might your telephone think youre trying
    to spell? What words could you be trying to spell?
    a) What are the possible letters available for each number?
    4:

    6:

    3:

    b) What four-letter words can you create using those letters?


    Answer:
    c) How can you be certain that you have not left out any possible words from your list?
    Answer:

    2) Define set.

    a collection of distinct elements


    3) Give an example of a set from the text example from above.
    Answer:
    4) Define subset.

    contains elements from the set


    5) Give an example of a subset from the answer given in #4.
    Answer:
    6) Define roster form

    a way to write a set by listing the elements of a set


    within braces, { }.

    7) Define set-builder notation

    another way to write a set by describing the


    properties an element must have to be included in the
    set.
    Part 2: Using Roster Form and Set-Builder Notation
    8) T is the set of natural numbers that are less than 6.

    a) What are natural numbers? _______________________________________________________


    b) Which inequality sign would you need to use? _________
    Roster Form

    Set-Builder Notation

    9) N is the set of even natural numbers that are less than or equal to 12.
    Roster Form

    Set-Builder Notation

    10) How are roster form and set-builder notation different? ____________________________________
    ______________________________________________________________________________________
    ______________________________________________________________________________________

    Part 3: Inequalities and Set-Builder Notation


    11) In set-builder notation, how do you write the solution of -5x + 7 17?

    Set-Builder Notation: ________________________________________________


    12) In set-builder notation, how do you write the solution of 9 4n > 21?

    13) Define empty set.

    also known as the null set; the set that contains NO


    elements
    14)

    The _________________ __________ IS a _______________ of EVERY


    ___________.
    USE ______ or ______________ to represent the empty set.
    15) What are all the subsets of the set {3, 4, 5}?
    a) Remember that the empty set is ALWAYS a subset. ___________________
    b) List the subsets with one element: ___________________________________________________
    c) List the subsets with two elements: __________________________________________________
    d) List the original set. It is ALWAYS considered a subset. __________________________________
    16) There are a total of __________ subsets. The subsets of the set {3, 4, 5} are:
    ______________________________________________________________________________________
    17) a) What are the subsets of the set P = {a, b}?_____________________________________________
    b) What are the subsets of the set S = {a, b, c}?__________________________________________
    c) Why are all of the subsets of P also a subset of S? _________________________________________
    ___________________________________________________________________________________
    d) Let A = {x|x < 3} and B = {x|x 0}. Is A a subset of B?
    Write out the sets of each:
    A:_______________________________
    Is A a subset of B?_________

    B: ___________________________________

    Explain: ___________________________________________

    _______________________________________________________________________________

    Part 5: Finding the Complement of A Set


    18) Define universal set.

    the largest set you are using


    19) Define complement of a set.

    set of all elements in the universal set that ARE NOT in


    the set; usually notated by A

    3.5 Working With Sets
    20) Universal set U = {king, queen, bishop, knight, rook, pawn} and set A is the set of chess pieces that move side
    to side. What is the complement of set A?

    a)
    Which pieces

    are in

    set A?
    _________________________________________________________
    Explain: ______________________________________________________________________
    c) Which pieces would then be in the complement of set A? __________________________________
    Explain: ___________________________________________________________________
    21) Universal set U = {months of the year} and set A = {months with exactly 31 days}. What is the complement of
    set A? Write your answer in roster form.
    a) Which months are in set A?_________________________________________________________
    Explain: _______________________________________________________________________
    b) Which months (in roster form) would then be in the complement of set A?
    _________________________________________________________________________
    Explain: _______________________________________________________________________
    22) ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDING

    ________ are the basis of mathematical language. You


    can _________ sets in _____________ ways and form
    _______________ sets of ______________ from a
    _________________ set. You can also
    ________________ the ______________ that ARE
    ________ in a given set.
