1. Using the sets A, B, and C, determine whether each statement is True or False.
A = {3, 5, 9, 11}
B = {4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
(a)
10 A
(f)
BC
(b)
A = {3, 5, 9, 11}
(g)
(c)
B = C
(h)
AB C
(d)
{4, 5} C
(i)
B C {4, 6, 8, 10}
(e)

2. Using the sets A, B, and C, list the elements in each set. If the set is empty write .
A = {3, 5, 9, 11}
B = {4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
(a) A B
(c) B
(b) B C
(d) A
3. Using the sets D, E, and F, list the elements in each set. If the set is empty write .
D = {3, 5, 7}
E = {2, 4, 6, 8}
F = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
(a) D E
(c) (D E) (F E)
(b) (D E) F
(d) (D E) (D F )
4. Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8}
C = {0, 1, 2, 3}
and
(a) Is A B = A (A B)?
Explain.
