Set Operations 62338C
1. **Problem Statement:** Given the universal set $\varepsilon = \{x : x \text{ is a positive integer and } 5 \leq x \leq 40\}$, and sets:
- $P = \{x : x \text{ is a multiple of } 4\}$
- $Q = \{x : x \text{ is a perfect square}\}$
- $R = \{x : x \text{ is a cube of numbers}\}$
Find:
i. $P \cup Q$
ii. $P \cap R$
iii. $P \cap Q$
iv. $P' \cap R$
v. $P' \cap Q$
b. Find $n(P \cup Q)$
2. **Step 1: List elements of $\varepsilon$**
$$\varepsilon = \{5,6,7,\ldots,40\}$$
3. **Step 2: Find elements of $P$ (multiples of 4 between 5 and 40)**
Multiples of 4 in $\varepsilon$ are:
$$P = \{8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40\}$$
4. **Step 3: Find elements of $Q$ (perfect squares between 5 and 40)**
Perfect squares in $\varepsilon$ are:
$$Q = \{9,16,25,36\}$$
5. **Step 4: Find elements of $R$ (cubes between 5 and 40)**
Cubes in $\varepsilon$ are:
$$R = \{8,27\}$$
6. **Step 5: Calculate $P \cup Q$ (union of $P$ and $Q$)**
Combine all unique elements from $P$ and $Q$:
$$P \cup Q = \{8,9,12,16,20,24,25,28,32,36,40\}$$
7. **Step 6: Calculate $P \cap R$ (intersection of $P$ and $R$)**
Elements common to both $P$ and $R$:
$$P \cap R = \{8\}$$
8. **Step 7: Calculate $P \cap Q$ (intersection of $P$ and $Q$)**
Elements common to both $P$ and $Q$:
$$P \cap Q = \{16,36\}$$
9. **Step 8: Calculate $P'$ (complement of $P$ in $\varepsilon$)**
Elements in $\varepsilon$ not in $P$:
$$P' = \varepsilon \setminus P = \{5,6,7,9,10,11,13,14,15,17,18,19,21,22,23,25,26,27,29,30,31,33,34,35,37,38,39\}$$
10. **Step 9: Calculate $P' \cap R$ (elements in $P'$ and $R$)**
Elements common to $P'$ and $R$:
$$P' \cap R = \{27\}$$
11. **Step 10: Calculate $P' \cap Q$ (elements in $P'$ and $Q$)**
Elements common to $P'$ and $Q$:
$$P' \cap Q = \{9,25\}$$
12. **Step 11: Find $n(P \cup Q)$ (number of elements in $P \cup Q$)**
Count elements in $P \cup Q$:
$$n(P \cup Q) = 11$$
**Final answers:**
i. $P \cup Q = \{8,9,12,16,20,24,25,28,32,36,40\}$
ii. $P \cap R = \{8\}$
iii. $P \cap Q = \{16,36\}$
iv. $P' \cap R = \{27\}$
v. $P' \cap Q = \{9,25\}$
b. $n(P \cup Q) = 11$
