Question
Proof must follow the form of the proof method "set element method for proving a set equals the empty set"
The method requires the instantiation of an element in a set that is claimed to be empty and a proof by contradiction that the set is empty.
Please give the proof line by line, with each line being a statement and a justification.
Please give the proof in English, not just math symbols, so I can use the proof for study.
Formally start and end the proof.
Thank you!
Expert Solution
Step 1
Let, A, B, C be three sets such that
B ∩ C ⊆ A
Now, if possible, let,
x ∈ (C – A) ∩ (B – A)
=> x ∈ (C – A) and x ∈ (B – A)
=> (x ∈ C but x ∉ A) and (x ∈ B but x ∉ A)
