    Study Notes

    Null Sets

    • A null set, also known as an empty set, contains no elements.
    • Among the provided options, {x | x^2 + 1 = 0, x ∈ R} is a null set as it has no real solutions.

    Subset Relationships

    • If A is a subset of B, the correct relationship is Ac ⊆ Bc, where Ac is the complement of A and Bc is the complement of B.

    Power Sets

    • The cardinality of the power set P(A) for set A = {1, 3, 5, 7} is 2^n, where n is the number of elements in A. Thus, P(A) has 16 subsets.

    Set Operations

    • Two key identities in set theory:
      • A ∪ (B ∩ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
      • A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ C)

    Analysis of Class Data

    • In a class of 60 students, 45 like music and 50 like dancing. With 5 not liking either, at least 40 students like both music and dancing.

    Intersection and Union of Sets

    • Sets A = {1, 2, 3, ..., 10} can generate subsets. The number of subsets with exactly two elements is 45, computed through combinations.

    Multiple Sets and Null Set Determination

    • Consider sets where A consists of multiples of 3, B consists of multiples of 4, and C consists of multiples of 12. The null set can be represented by (A ∩ B) ∩ C.

    Set Inequalities

    • For sets A = {x ∈ R: x^2 + 6x - 7 < 0} and B = {x ∈ R: x^2 + 9x + 14 > 0}, important derived properties include:
      • A ∩ B = (-2, 1) and A \ B = (-7, -2).

    Disjoint Sets

    • If A ∩ B = C ∩ D = Ø, then:
      • A ∪ C and B ∪ D are disjoint sets.
      • A ∩ C and B ∩ D will also be disjoint.

    Counting Natural Numbers

    • The problem of counting natural numbers less than or equal to 1000 that are not divisible by 10, 15, or 25 involves using the principle of inclusion-exclusion.
