I Need help again! Given the following Venn diagram, choose the correct set for M n N
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

{2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

Step-by-step explanation:

The universal set is

U = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

M = {3, 4, 7, 9}

N = {4, 6, 7}

M n N = {4, 7}

The bar above M n N means the complement of M n N which is all elements of the universal set that are not in M n N.

Answer: {2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

Hope your day is going well
The slope equation is y2- y1/ x2-x1
Y2 = 5
Y1 = 0
X2= 3
X1= -7
5-0/ 3 - -7
5/10 5 divided by 10 is 2
Your slope is 2
