Question

Examine the following sets of events.

Set A: {1, 5, 7, 9, 14}
Set B: {2, 5, 6, 8, 14, 17}

Which of the following represents the intersection of set A and set B ?
{∅}
{5, 14}
{1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 14,​ 17}
{1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 17}

Answer 1

Step-by-step answer:

The intersection of two sets A & B is represented by the set (collection of members) common to both sets.

A={1, 5, 7, 9, 14}

B={2, 5, 6, 8, 14, 17}

By examining the two sets, we see that the set common to both (intersection) are the numbers in bold.
