Let A be some subset of a universal set U. The "complement of A" is the set of elements in U that do not belong to A.

For example, if U is the set of all integers {..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, ...} and A is the set of all positive integers {1, 2, 3, ...}, then the complement of A is the set {..., -2, -1, 0}.

Notice that the union of A and its complement make up the universal set U.

In this case,

U = {1, 2, 3, 6, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17}

The set {3, 10, 16} is a subset of U, since all three of its elements belong to U.

Then the complement of this set is all the elements of U that aren't in this set:

{1, 2, 6, 13, 14, 17}

Find 2x2 - 2z4 + y2 - x2 + z4 if x = -4, y = 3, and z = 2.
Alexxandr [17]
X = - 4;  y = 3;  z = 2;
2 x² - 2 z^4 + y² - x² + z^4 =
= 2 * (-4)² - 2 * 2^4 + 3² - ( -4)² + 2^4 =
= 2 * 16 - 2 * 16 + 9 - 16 + 16 =
= 32 - 32 + 9 - 16 + 16 =  9
