Mathematics in the Modern World
Activity 3: Sets
I. Determine if each statement is true or false.
1. The intersection of two infinite sets is also infinite.
2. If A, B, C are sets where A B, then A × C B × C.
3. If A and B are sets and if A B, then A B .
4. If A B then A B = .
5. For any two sets A and B, if A B = A, then B A
6. All sets are disjoint with the empty set.
7. If two sets are disjoint, then their corresponding power sets are also disjoint.
8. A set is a subset of its power set.
II. Consider the sets. Write U,A, B, C in roster method and determine the following:
U = {a,c,d,e,g,i,l,m,n,q,r,s,t,u}
A = {x | x is a letter in the wordquadrilateral}
B = {x | x is a letter in the word square}
C = {x | x is a letter in the word rectangle}

dual major in math and computer science. How many students were
a) majoring in math only?
b) not majoring in computer science?
c) not math or computer science majors?
2. In a group of 40 first year college male students, 22 like basketball, 18 are interested in tennis,
and 14 like volleyball. Of these students, 7 are interested in both volleyball and basketball, 9 like
both basketball and tennis, 5 like both tennis and volleyball, and 3 students like the three sports.

c) 3.at least one sport?
d) exactly one sport?
e) are interested in tennis only?
ANSWERS:
II. Consider the sets. Write U, A, B, C in roster method and determine the following:
U = {a, c, d, e, g, I, l, m, n, q, r, s, t, u}
A = {x | x is a letter in the word quadrilateral} {a, d, e, i, l, q, r, t, u}
B = {x | x is a letter in the word square} {a, e, q, r, s, u}
C = {x | x is a letter in the word rectangle} {a, c, e, g, l, n, r, t}
1. A ∪ B
- {a, d, e, i, l, q, r, s, t, u}
2. (A ∪ B) ∩ C
- {a, e, l, r, t}
3. (B ∩ C) ∪ (B ∩ A)
- {a, e, l, r, t}
4. B′ ∩ C′
- {d, i, m}
5. A\C
- {d, i, q, u}
6. A × C
