Answer:

a) From A ∩ A' = ∅, we have;

A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B

b) From A ∩ (A' ∩ B') = (A ∩ A') ∩ B' and A ∩ A' = ∅, we have;

A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = ∅

Step-by-step explanation:

a) By distributive law of sets, we have;

A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)

From the complementary law of sets, we have;

A ∩ A' = ∅

Therefore, for A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B, we have

A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = (A ∩ A') ∪ (A ∩ B) (distributive law of sets)

A ∩ A' = ∅ (complementary law of sets)

Therefore;

(A ∩ A') ∪ (A ∩ B) = ∅ ∪ (A ∩ B)  = (A ∩ B) (Addition to zero identity property)

∴  A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B

b) By De Morgan's law

(A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B'

Therefore, A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = A ∩ (A' ∩ B')

By associative law of sets, we have;

A ∩ (A' ∩ B') = (A ∩ A') ∩ B'

A ∩ A' = ∅ (complementary law of sets)

Therefore, (A ∩ A') ∩ B' = ∅  ∩ B' = ∅

Which gives;

A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = ∅.

A farmer builds a fence to enclose a rectangular pasture. He uses 160 feet of fence. Find the total
givi [52]
Since the problem said he uses 160 feet of fence, you know that is the perimeter
P = 2l + 2w
You know that one of the dimensions is 50, so you can plug that into the equation
160 = 2 x 50 + 2w
160 = 100 + 2w
2w = 60
w = 30
The area is equal to l x w 
50 x 30 = 1500 square feet

What is the value of b2-4ac for the following equation? 5x2+7x=6​
poizon [28]

Answer:

169

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The function is

5x^2+7x=6​

rearrange

5x2+7x-6=0

From the above expression, we can see that

a=​5

b=7

c=-6

Substitute into the expression b^2-4ac

=7^2-4*5*-6

= 49-(-120)

=49+120

=169

Hence the answer is 169
