SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
A set is a collection of objects.
The objects in a set are called elements.
Roster form lists the elements in brackets.

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Example: The set of months in the year is:
M = { January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December }
Example: The set of natural numbers less than ten is:

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
The symbol Є means “is an element of”.
Example: March Є { January, February, March, April }
Example: Kaplan Є { January, February, March, April }

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Set-builder notation doesn’t list the elements. It tells us the rules (the conditions) for being in the set.
Example: M = { x | x is a month of the year }
Example: A = { x | x Є N and x < 7 }
![Page 6: MM150 S URVEY OF M ATHEMATICS Unit 2 Seminar - Sets](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062909/5a4d1bb57f8b9ab0599ce468/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Sample: A = { x | x Є N and x < 7 }
Example: Write the following using Set Builder Notation.K = { 2, 4, 6, 8 }
![Page 7: MM150 S URVEY OF M ATHEMATICS Unit 2 Seminar - Sets](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062909/5a4d1bb57f8b9ab0599ce468/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Sample : A = { x | x Є N and x < 7 }
Example: Write the following using Set Builder Notation.S = { 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 }

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Set A is equal to set B if and only if set A and set B contain exactly the same elements.
Example: A = { Texas, Tennessee }B = { Tennessee, Texas }C = { South Carolina, South Dakota }
What sets are equal?
![Page 9: MM150 S URVEY OF M ATHEMATICS Unit 2 Seminar - Sets](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062909/5a4d1bb57f8b9ab0599ce468/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
The cardinal number of a set tells us how many elements are in the set. This is denoted by n(A).
Example: A = { Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon }B = { Hawaii }C = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 }
What is n(A)?
n(B)?
n(C)?

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
Set A is equivalent to set B if and only if n(A) = n(B).
Example: A = { 1, 2 }B = { Tennessee, Texas }C = { South Carolina, South Dakota }D = { Utah }
What sets are equivalent?

SECTION 2.1: SET CONCEPTS
The set that contains no elements is called the empty set or null set and is symbolized by { } or Ø.
This is different from {0} and {Ø}!

1. Determine the elements in A ∩ B ∩ C.2. Determine the elements in A ∩ B, B ∩ C, and A ∩ C
(not already listed in #1).3. Place all remaining elements in A, B, C as needed (not
already listed in #1 or #2).4. Place U elements not listed.
