Chapter 3.8, Problem 11PPE

To determine

To Find: The union of sets $A=\left\{1,3,4\right\}\&C=\left\{2,5,7,10\right\}$

Answer to Problem 11PPE

  $A\cup C=\left\{1,2,3,4,5,7,10\right\}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The sets

  $\begin{array}{l}A=\left\{1,3,4\right\},B=\left\{x|x\text{ is an even number less than 9}\right\},C=\left\{2,5,7,10\right\}\\ \&D=\left\{x|x\text{ is an odd number less than 10}\right\}\end{array}$

Concept and Formula Used:

Union of set: The union of two or more set contain all the elements of the set present in either of the set taking common elements only once.

Intersection of sets: The intersection of two or more sets is a set contain common element of all the sets.

Calculation:

The given sets are $A=\left\{1,3,4\right\}\&C=\left\{2,5,7,10\right\}$

The union of the set is

  $\begin{array}{l}A\cup C=\left\{1,3,4\right\}\cup \left\{2,5,7,10\right\}\\ A\cup C=\left\{1,2,3,4,5,7,10\right\}\end{array}$

Conclusion:

The union of set $A=\left\{1,3,4\right\}\&C=\left\{2,5,7,10\right\}$ is $A\cup C=\left\{1,2,3,4,5,7,10\right\}$
