### Step-by-step solutions:
**13a. Find M'**
- M = {x : -20 < x < 15} means all x strictly between -20 and 15.
- 𝜀 = {x : -20 ≤ x ≤ 20} includes -20 and 20.
- Complement M' = elements in 𝜀 not in M.
- So M' = {-20} ∪ [15, 20]
**13b. Find N ∩ P**
- N = (-10, 10], P = [9, 18)
- Intersection is numbers x where x > -10 and x ≤ 10 and also 9 ≤ x < 18
- Overlap is [9, 10]
**13c. Find n(N ∪ P)**
- N ∪ P covers from > -10 to < 18, combining intervals (-10,10] and [9,18)
- Union is (-10, 18)
- Since x are real numbers, but assuming integers for counting:
- Integers in N: from -9 to 10 inclusive → count = 10 - (-9) + 1 = 20
- Integers in P: from 9 to 17 inclusive → count = 17 - 9 + 1 = 9
- Overlap integers: 9 and 10 → 2 integers
- So n(N ∪ P) = n(N) + n(P) - n(N ∩ P) = 20 + 9 - 2 = 27
**13d. Find N ∩ M'**
- M' = {-20} ∪ [15, 20]
- N = (-10, 10]
- Intersection is empty set since N is between -10 and 10, M' is outside that range
**14a. Find n(A)**
- A = multiples of 4 between 10 and 80 inclusive
- Multiples of 4: 12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80
- Count: 18 elements
**14b. Find n(B)**
- B = multiples of 5 between 10 and 80 inclusive
- Multiples of 5: 10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,65,70,75,80
- Count: 15 elements
**14c. Find n(A ∩ B)**
- Intersection are numbers divisible by both 4 and 5 → divisible by 20
- Multiples of 20 between 10 and 80: 20,40,60,80
- Count: 4 elements
**15a.i. List 𝜀**
- Integers 4 ≤ x ≤ 15: {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}
**15a.ii. List A**
- A = {x : 30 < 5x < 45} → divide inequalities by 5:
- 6 < x < 9
- Integers satisfying: 7,8
**15a.iii. List B**
- B = factors of 60
- Factors of 60: 1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60
- Restrict to 𝜀: 4,5,6,10,12,15
**15a.iv. List (A ∪ B)'**
- A ∪ B = {4,5,6,7,8,10,12,15}
- Complement in 𝜀: elements in 𝜀 not in A ∪ B
- 𝜀 = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}
- So (A ∪ B)' = {9,11,13,14}
**15a.v. List A' ∩ B'**
- A' = 𝜀 extbackslash A = {4,5,6,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}
- B' = 𝜀 extbackslash B = {5,7,8,9,11,13,14}
- Intersection: {5,9,11,13,14}
**15a.vi. List (A ∩ B)'**
- A ∩ B = elements in both A and B
- A = {7,8}, B = {4,5,6,10,12,15}
- Intersection is empty set
- So (A ∩ B)' = 𝜀 = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}
**15b. Find n((A ∩ B)')**
- Since A ∩ B = ∅, n((A ∩ B)') = n(𝜀) = 12
**19a.i. List P ∩ R**
- P = multiples of 2 in 𝜀 = {6,8,10,12,14}
- R = multiples of 5 in 𝜀 = {5,10,15}
- Intersection: {10}
**19a.ii. List Q ∩ (P ∪ R)**
- Q = multiples of 3 = {6,9,12,15}
- P ∪ R = {6,8,10,12,14,5,15}
- Intersection: {6,12,15}
**19b. Find n(Q' ∩ R)**
- Q' = elements not multiples of 3 = {5,7,8,10,11,13,14}
- R = {5,10,15}
- Intersection: {5,10}
- Count: 2
**20a. Find n(A ∪ B)**
- A = multiples of 3 in 𝜀 = {9,12,15}
- B = odd numbers in 𝜀 = {7,9,11,13,15}
- Union = {7,9,11,12,13,15}
- Count: 6
**20b. List elements of C'**
- C = {10,11,12,13}
- 𝜀 = {7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}
- C' = 𝜀 extbackslash C = {7,8,9,14,15}
**20c. Find x such that x ∈ (B ∩ C') and x ∉ A**
- B ∩ C' = odd numbers in C' = {7,9,15}
- A = {9,12,15}
- x ∉ A means exclude 9 and 15
- So x = 7
**21a. List elements of P**
- P = factors of 12 in 𝜀 = {3,4,6}
