|
|
$Y$, you suppose that _____ and show that _____.

|
|
|
$x$ is a particular but arbitrarily chosen element of $X$; $x$ is an element of

|
$Y$.

|
|
|
3. To disprove that a set $X$ is a subset of a set $Y$, you show that there is
|
|
_____.
|
|
|
|
an element in $X$ that is not in $Y$.
|
|
|

|
|
|
$x$ is in either $A$ or $B$.
|
|
|
|
5. An element $x$ is in $A \cap B$ if, and only if, _____.
|
|
|
|
$x$ is in both $A$ and $B$.
|
|
|
|
6. An element $x$ is in $B - A$ if, and only if, _____.
|
|
|
|
$x$ is in $B$ but not in $A$.
|
|
|
|
7. An element $x$ is in $A^c$ if, and only if, _____.

10. Sets $A$ and $B$ are disjoint if, and only if, _____.

they have no elements in common, or $A \cap B = \emptyset$.
|
|
|
|
11. A collection of nonempty sets $A_1, A_2, A_3, \dots$ is a partition of a set
|
|
$A$ if, and only if, _____.
|
|
|
|
all $A_i$ are a subset of $A$, but are also disjoint.
|
|
|
