The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the sets \( A \) and \( B \) are equivalent, we need to find the elements of each set and compare them. ### Step 1: Define Set A Set \( A \) is defined as: \[ A = \{ x : x \in \mathbb{N} \text{ and } 11 \geq 2x - 1 \} \] To find the elements of set \( A \), we need to solve the inequality \( 11 \geq 2x - 1 \). ### Step 2: Solve the Inequality for Set A Starting with the inequality: \[ 11 \geq 2x - 1 \] Add \( 1 \) to both sides: \[ 11 + 1 \geq 2x \] \[ 12 \geq 2x \] Now, divide both sides by \( 2 \): \[ 6 \geq x \] or \[ x \leq 6 \] Since \( x \) must be a natural number (\( \mathbb{N} \)), the possible values of \( x \) are: \[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \] Thus, we have: \[ A = \{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \} \] ### Step 3: Define Set B Set \( B \) is defined as: \[ B = \{ y : y \in \mathbb{W} \text{ and } 3 \leq y \leq 9 \} \] Where \( \mathbb{W} \) represents whole numbers. The values of \( y \) that satisfy this condition are: \[ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 \] Thus, we have: \[ B = \{ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 \} \] ### Step 4: Compare Sets A and B Now we compare the elements of sets \( A \) and \( B \): - Set \( A = \{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \} \) - Set \( B = \{ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 \} \) ### Step 5: Determine if the Sets are Equivalent Two sets are equivalent if they have the same number of elements. - Set \( A \) has \( 6 \) elements: \( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \) - Set \( B \) has \( 7 \) elements: \( 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 \) Since the number of elements in set \( A \) is not equal to the number of elements in set \( B \), we conclude that the sets are not equivalent. ### Final Answer The sets \( A \) and \( B \) are **not equivalent**. ---
