The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given statement: "Let A and B be two non-empty subsets of a set X such that A is not a subset of B." We need to determine the implications of this statement and evaluate the possible options. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information**: - We have two non-empty subsets A and B of a set X. - It is stated that A is not a subset of B. This means there exists at least one element in A that is not in B. 2. **Finding Elements in A and B**: - Let's assume some elements for A and B to illustrate the concept. - For example, let \( A = \{2, 5, 7\} \) and \( B = \{1, 5, 6\} \). - Here, we can see that A contains the elements 2 and 7 which are not in B. 3. **Checking Subset Relationships**: - Since A is not a subset of B, we confirm that there are elements in A that do not belong to B. - We also check if B is a subset of A. In our example, B contains the element 1 which is not in A, so B is also not a subset of A. 4. **Exploring the Complement of B**: - The complement of B, denoted as \( B' \), consists of all elements in X that are not in B. - If \( X = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7\} \), then \( B' = \{2, 3, 4, 7\} \). 5. **Analyzing the Relationship Between A and B'**: - We need to check if A is a subset of \( B' \) or if A and \( B' \) are disjoint. - In our example, A has elements 2 and 7 which are also in \( B' \). Therefore, A is not a subset of \( B' \) since it contains the element 5 which is not in \( B' \). 6. **Conclusion**: - Since A is not a subset of B and we have found elements that are common between A and \( B' \), we conclude that A and \( B' \) are non-disjoint. - Thus, we can summarize that A and B have some common elements, and A is not a subset of B. ### Final Answer: The correct conclusion is that A and \( B' \) are non-disjoint.
