For a set U={5,6,7,8,9}U=\{5,6,7,8,9\}, find the complement of A={5,8,9}A=\{5,8,9\} and the set BB given its complement B={5,6,9}B'=\{5,6,9\}.
(a) A={6,7}A' = \{6,7\} (b) B={7,8}B = \{7,8\}

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The universal set is ={5,6,7,8,9}=\{5,6,7,8,9\} . The set A={5,8,9}A=\{5,8,9\}
3. The complement of set BB, denoted as BB^{\prime}, is {5,6,9}\{5,6,9\}
4. The complement of a set is the set of all elements in the universal set that are not in the given set.

STEP 2

To find the complement of set AA, denoted as AA^{\prime}, we need to find all the elements in the universal set $$ that are not in set $A$.
A=UAA^{\prime} = U - A

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the universal set $$ and set $A$ to calculate $A^{\prime}$.
A={5,6,7,8,9}{5,8,9}A^{\prime} = \{5,6,7,8,9\} - \{5,8,9\}

STEP 4

Calculate the set AA^{\prime}.
A={6,7}A^{\prime} = \{6,7\}

STEP 5

To find the set BB, given that B={5,,9}B^{\prime}=\{5,,9\}, we need to find all the elements in the universal set $$ that are not in set $B^{\prime}$.
B=UBB = U - B^{\prime}

STEP 6

Now, plug in the given values for the universal set $$ and set $B^{\prime}$ to calculate $B$.
B={5,6,,8,9}{5,6,9}B = \{5,6,,8,9\} - \{5,6,9\}

STEP 7

Calculate the set BB.
B={7,}B = \{7,\}So, the complement of set AA is {6,7}\{6,7\} and set BB is {7,}\{7,\}.
