Expert Solution
Step 1

The symbol  denotes the union of sets. The set AB contains the elements which belongs to set A or belongs to set B or belongs to both A and B

The symbol  denotes the intersection of sets. The set AB contains the elements which belongs to both sets A and B

The two sets A and B can be termed as disjoint, if there is no common element among A and B. Then AB is a null set, that is, AB=ϕ
