Set theory is the mathematical theory of well-determined collections, called sets, of objects that are called members, or elements, of the set. ... The axioms of set theory imply the existence of a set-theoretic universe so rich that all mathematical objects can be construed as sets

For example, if A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} then A Í B (Í means is a subset of). If A = {1, 2, 4, 8}, then n(A) = 4. This is because n(A) means the number of members in set A. The universal set is the set of all sets.

Write the linear equation that gives the rule for this table.

Maksim231197 [3]

to get the equation of any straight line all we need is two points, well, let's just grab them from the table.

hmmm let's use (-49 , -39) and hmmm say (67 , 77)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-49}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-39})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{67}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{77}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{77}-\stackrel{y1}{(-39)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{67}-\underset{x_1}{(-49)}}}\implies \cfrac{77+39}{67+49}\implies \cfrac{116}{116}\implies 1$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-39)}=\stackrel{m}{1}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-49)}) \\\\\\ y+39=1(x+49)\implies y+39=x+49\implies y=x+10$
