Model Answer
(01). (i).
(a). A= {, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3, },
C = {, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, }

B = {, -20, -10, 0, 10, 20, }


D = {, -5, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 5, 6, }

(b). A D = {, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, }


(c) B C = {, -20, -10, 0, 10, 20, }

(ii).
(a). (Q R) (Q \ R) ( R \ Q)
= {c, e} {b, i}= {b, c, e, i}
P (Q R) = {a, b, c, d, e } {b, c, e, i}= {a, b, c, d, e, i}
(b). (Q R) = {d, f, g, h}
P (Q R) = (P \ (Q R) ) (Q R) \ P
= {a, b, c, e} {f, g, h}= {a, b, c, e, f, g, h}
(iii)
(a) Let X be an arbitrary number of P(A). For each aA, there are two possibilities:
aX or aX. But there are m elements in A; hence are 2 2 2 2 2 2 m
different sets X. That is, P(A) has 2 m elements.
(b) P(A) = 2048 = 2n
2n = 211
Therefore n = 11. Number of element of set A is 11.
******************************************************************************
(02). (i ) A ( B C ) ( A B) ( A C )
First we want to be show that
A ( B C ) ( A B) ( A C )
let x A ( B C )

x A or x B C
x A or [ x B or C but not both]
[x A or x B] or [ x A or x C ] but not both
x ( A B) or x ( A C ) but not both
x ( A B) ( A C )
A ( B C ) ( A B) ( A C ) ----------- (1)

Secondly
y ( A B) ( A C )
y ( A B) or y ( A C ) but not both,
( y A or y B )or ( y A or y C ) but not both,
y A or ( y B or y C but not both),
y A or ( y B C ).
y A (B C) ,
( A B) ( A C ) A ( B C ) (2)
(1) and (2)

A ( B C ) ( A B) ( A C )
(ii). (a)
P(A) = {{}, {ab}, {ac}, {bc},{ab, ac}, {ab, bc}, {ac, bc}, {ab, ac, bc}}

(b) AB={3, 4, 5}.


Then P(AB) = {{}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {3, 4}, {3, 5}, {4, 5}, {3, 4, 5}}
So A1 B1 = {3,5}. P(A1 B1) = {{}, {3}, {5}, {3, 5}} .

(03). (i).
(a). f(-6) = (-6)3 = -216
(b). f(x-a) = (x-a)3 = x3- 3ax2 + 3a2x a3
(c ) [f(x+a) f(a)] / a = [(x+3)3 a3]/ a = [x3+ 3ax2 + 3a2x + a3 a3]/a
= x3/a + 3x2+ 3ax
