This document provides a problem set on sets with 9 questions. It asks the student to write sets in roster form, determine if statements about set membership are true or false, write subsets of given sets that meet certain criteria, perform set operations like union and intersection, and draw Venn diagrams to illustrate relationships between sets. The problem set covers basic concepts in sets including membership, subsets, set operations, and using Venn diagrams to represent relationships between sets.

June 21, 2021 Read and answer the following word problems. Show your solutions if needed. You may write on a piece of paper or type your answers. Kindly send it to our schoology.
1. Write the following sets in the roaster form.
(i) A = { x| x is a positive integer less than 10 and 2x -1 is an odd number} A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9} (ii) C = { x : x2 +7x -8 = 0, x є R} C={ 2. State which of the following statements are TRUE and which are FALSE. Justify your answer. (i) 37 ∉ { x | x has exactly two positive factors} (ii) 28 є { y|the sum of all the positive factors of y is 2y} (iii) 7,747 є { t | t is a multiple of 37}
3. Given that N={ 1, 2, 3, …, 100}, then
(i) Write the subset A of N, whose element are odd numbers. (ii) Write the subset B of N, whose element are represented by x + 2, where x є N.
4. Given that E = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}. If n represents any member of E, then, write the following sets containing all numbers represented by: (i) n+1 (ii) n2
5. Order the sets of numbers: C, Z, R, Q, N using ⊂.
6. Determine whether each of the following statements is TRUE or FALSE. (i) x є {x} (ii) {x} ⊆ {x} (iii) {x} є {x} (iv) {x} є {{x}} (v) ∅ ⊆ {x} (vi) ∅ є {x} 7. Let A = {a, b, c}, B = {b, c, d}, and C = {b, c, e}. (i) Find A ⋃ {B ⋂ C), (A ⋃ B) ⋂ C, and (A ⋃ B) ⋂ (A ⋃ C). Which of these sets are equal? (ii) Find A ⋂ (B ⋃ C), ( A ⋂ B) ⋃ C, and ( A ⋂ B) ⋃ ( A ⋂ C). Which of these sets are equal? (iii) Find A – ( B – C) and ( A – B) – C. Are these sets equal? 8. Let A = { x, y) , B = { 1, 2, 3}, and C = {a, b}. Find A x B x C. 9. Draw the Venn diagrams to illustrate the following relationship among sets E, M, and U, where E is the set of students studying English in a school, M is the set of students studying in the same school, U is the set of all students in that school. (i) All the students who study Mathematics study English, but some students who study English do not study Mathematics. (ii) There is no student who studies both Mathematics and English. (iii) Some of the students study Mathematics but do not study English some study English but do not study Mathematics, and some study both. (iv) Not all students study Mathematics, but every student studying English studies Mathematics.
