Suppose U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} is the universal set and P = {2, 4, 6, 8}. What is P' ?
{2, 4, 6, 8}
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
{1, 3, 5, 7}**
{1, 3, 5, 7, 8}
yes..
To find the complement of a set P, denoted by P', we need to find all the elements that are in the universal set U but not in the set P.
In this case, the universal set U is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and the set P is {2, 4, 6, 8}.
To find P', we need to identify all the elements that are in U but not in P.
From the universal set U, the elements {1, 3, 5, 7} are not in P.
Therefore, the complement of set P, denoted as P', is {1, 3, 5, 7}.
So, the correct answer is {1, 3, 5, 7}.
To find the complement of set P, denoted by P', we need to identify all the elements in the universal set U that are not in set P.
Given that U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} and P = {2, 4, 6, 8}, we can identify the elements in P' by subtracting the elements in P from the elements in U.
Therefore, the complement of set P, P', is {1, 3, 5, 7}.
