The correct Answer is:
To find the complements of the given sets in the universal set \( N \) (the set of natural numbers), we will follow the definition of the complement of a set. The complement of a set \( A \) is defined as all elements in the universal set that are not in \( A \). Let's denote the universal set \( N \) as the set of all natural numbers: \[ N = \{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, \ldots \} \] Now, we will find the complements for each of the given sets: ### (i) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is odd} \} \) - The odd numbers in \( N \) are \( \{ 1, 3, 5, 7, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be the even numbers: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is even} \} \] ### (ii) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is even} \} \) - The even numbers in \( N \) are \( \{ 2, 4, 6, 8, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be the odd numbers: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is odd} \} \] ### (iii) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is a prime number} \} \) - The prime numbers in \( N \) are \( \{ 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be the composite numbers (and 1, which is neither prime nor composite): \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is composite or } x = 1 \} \] ### (iv) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x = 3n \text{ for some } n \in N \} \) - This set contains multiples of 3: \( \{ 3, 6, 9, 12, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be all natural numbers that are not multiples of 3: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 3n \text{ for any } n \in N \} \] ### (v) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is a perfect square} \} \) - The perfect squares in \( N \) are \( \{ 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be all natural numbers that are not perfect squares: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is not a perfect square} \} \] ### (vi) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is a perfect cube} \} \) - The perfect cubes in \( N \) are \( \{ 1, 8, 27, 64, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be all natural numbers that are not perfect cubes: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is not a perfect cube} \} \] ### (vii) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x + 5 = 7 \} \) - Solving \( x + 5 = 7 \) gives \( x = 2 \). - The complement will be all natural numbers except 2: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 2 \} \] ### (viii) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } 2x + 5 = 111 \} \) - Solving \( 2x + 5 = 111 \) gives \( 2x = 106 \) or \( x = 53 \). - The complement will be all natural numbers except 53: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 53 \} \] ### (ix) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \geq 6 \} \) - This set includes \( \{ 6, 7, 8, 9, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be all natural numbers less than 6: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x < 6 \} \] ### (x) Set: \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is divisible by 3 and 5} \} \) - A number divisible by both 3 and 5 is also divisible by 15: \( \{ 15, 30, 45, \ldots \} \). - The complement will be all natural numbers that are not divisible by 15: \[ \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 15n \text{ for any } n \in N \} \] ### Summary of Complements 1. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is even} \} \) 2. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is odd} \} \) 3. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is composite or } x = 1 \} \) 4. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 3n \text{ for any } n \in N \} \) 5. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is not a perfect square} \} \) 6. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \text{ is not a perfect cube} \} \) 7. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 2 \} \) 8. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 53 \} \) 9. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x < 6 \} \) 10. \( \{ x : x \in N \text{ and } x \neq 15n \text{ for any } n \in N \} \)
