The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine which of the given options is true based on the properties of sets A, B, and C. Let's denote the sets as follows: - Set A = {1, 2, 3, 4} - Set B = {4, 5, 6, 7} - Set C = {8, 9, 10, 11} We will evaluate each option step by step. ### Step 1: Evaluate Option A The expression for Option A is: \[ A - (B \cup C) = (A - B) \cup (A - C) \] 1. Calculate \( B \cup C \): \[ B \cup C = \{4, 5, 6, 7\} \cup \{8, 9, 10, 11\} = \{4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11\} \] 2. Calculate \( A - (B \cup C) \): \[ A - (B \cup C) = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} - \{4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11\} = \{1, 2, 3\} \] 3. Calculate \( A - B \): \[ A - B = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} - \{4, 5, 6, 7\} = \{1, 2, 3\} \] 4. Calculate \( A - C \): \[ A - C = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} - \{8, 9, 10, 11\} = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] 5. Now calculate \( (A - B) \cup (A - C) \): \[ (A - B) \cup (A - C) = \{1, 2, 3\} \cup \{1, 2, 3, 4\} = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] 6. Compare both sides: \[ A - (B \cup C) = \{1, 2, 3\} \quad \text{and} \quad (A - B) \cup (A - C) = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] They are not equal, so Option A is incorrect. ### Step 2: Evaluate Option B The expression for Option B is: \[ A - (B \cap C) = (A - B) \cup (A - C) \] 1. Calculate \( B \cap C \): \[ B \cap C = \{4, 5, 6, 7\} \cap \{8, 9, 10, 11\} = \emptyset \] 2. Calculate \( A - (B \cap C) \): \[ A - (B \cap C) = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} - \emptyset = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] 3. We already calculated \( A - B \) and \( A - C \): \[ A - B = \{1, 2, 3\} \quad \text{and} \quad A - C = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] 4. Now calculate \( (A - B) \cup (A - C) \): \[ (A - B) \cup (A - C) = \{1, 2, 3\} \cup \{1, 2, 3, 4\} = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] 5. Compare both sides: \[ A - (B \cap C) = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \quad \text{and} \quad (A - B) \cup (A - C) = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} \] They are equal, so Option B is correct. ### Conclusion The correct option is **B**.
