Subset Determination 0E3Bad
1. **State the problem:** Determine whether each set C is a subset of set D for the given pairs.
2. **Recall the definition of subset:** A set $C$ is a subset of $D$, written $C \subseteq D$, if every element of $C$ is also an element of $D$.
3. **Analyze each part:**
**a.** $C = \{x \mid 0 \leq x \leq 10\}$ and $D = \{x \mid -10 < x < 20\}$
- Since $C$ includes all $x$ from 0 to 10 inclusive, and $D$ includes all $x$ strictly between -10 and 20, all elements of $C$ lie within $D$.
- Therefore, $C \subseteq D$ is **true**.
**b.** $C = \{x \in \mathbb{Z} \mid 2 \leq x \leq 5\}$ and $D = \{x \mid 2 \leq x < 5\}$
- $C$ includes integers 2, 3, 4, 5.
- $D$ includes all real numbers $x$ with $2 \leq x < 5$, so it includes 2, 3, 4 but not 5.
- Since 5 is in $C$ but not in $D$, $C \subseteq D$ is **false**.
**c.** $C = \{x \in \mathbb{Z}^- \mid x > -7\}$ and $D = \{x \in \mathbb{Z} \mid -6 \leq x \leq 0\}$
- $\mathbb{Z}^-$ means negative integers.
- $C$ includes negative integers greater than -7, i.e., $-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1$.
- $D$ includes integers from -6 to 0 inclusive.
- All elements of $C$ are in $D$, so $C \subseteq D$ is **true**.
**d.** $C = \{x \in \mathbb{Q} \mid 0 < x < 1\}$ and $D = \{x \in \mathbb{Q} \mid 0 \leq x \leq 1\}$
- $C$ includes all rational numbers strictly between 0 and 1.
- $D$ includes all rational numbers between 0 and 1 inclusive.
- Since $D$ includes all elements of $C$ plus the endpoints, $C \subseteq D$ is **true**.
**Final answers:**
- a) True
- b) False
- c) True
- d) True
