Q. Let P={1,7,8} and Q={−10,7,8}. What is P∪Q?Choices:(A){7,8}(B){−10,1}(C){7}(D){−10,1,7,8}
Define Union of Sets: Identify the definition of the union of two sets.The union of two sets P and Q, denoted by P∪Q, is the set of all elements that are in P, in Q, or in both P and Q.
List Elements in Set P: List all the elements in set P.P={1,7,8}
List Elements in Set Q: List all the elements in set Q. Q={−10,7,8}
Combine Unique Elements: Combine all unique elements from sets P and Q to form the union.P∪Q={1,7,8,−10}Note that 7 and 8 are in both P and Q, but we list each element only once in the union.
Match with Choices: Match the resulting set with the given choices.The union set P∪Q={1,7,8,−10} matches with choice (D)\{−10, 1, 7, 8\}.
