The correct Answer is:
To find \( A - B \), we need to understand the concept of set difference in set theory. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Sets Let’s denote two sets: - Set \( A \) - Set \( B \) ### Step 2: Define the Set Difference The set difference \( A - B \) is defined as the set of elements that are in \( A \) but not in \( B \). Mathematically, it can be expressed as: \[ A - B = \{ x \in A \mid x \notin B \} \] ### Step 3: Visualize with a Venn Diagram To visualize this, we can use a Venn diagram: - Draw two overlapping circles, one for set \( A \) and one for set \( B \). - The area where the circles overlap represents \( A \cap B \) (the intersection of \( A \) and \( B \)). - The entire area covered by both circles represents \( A \cup B \) (the union of \( A \) and \( B \)). ### Step 4: Identify the Elements in \( A - B \) From the Venn diagram: - The elements in set \( A \) that are not in set \( B \) are represented by the part of circle \( A \) that does not overlap with circle \( B \). ### Step 5: Write the Final Expression Thus, the set difference \( A - B \) can be expressed as: \[ A - B = A \setminus (A \cap B) \] This means we take all elements in \( A \) and remove those that are also in \( B \). ### Conclusion The final answer for \( A - B \) is: \[ A - B = A \setminus (A \cap B) \]
