SETS Sets are lists of items that have specific members. Brackets { } are used to denote a set. The ELEMENTS of the set appear inside the { } brackets and are separated by commas.

Finite and Infinite sets Finite set – a set that has a definite number of members EXAMPLES :{ 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 } { q, w, e, r, t, y }
Finite and Infinite sets Finite set – a set that has a definite number of members EXAMPLES :{ 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 } { q, w, e, r, t, y } { 1, 2, 3, 4, …, 15, 16, 17 }
Finite and Infinite sets Finite set – a set that has a definite number of members EXAMPLES :{ 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 } { q, w, e, r, t, y } { 1, 2, 3, 4, …, 15, 16, 17 } The dots show that the pattern established in the beginning of the set continues up to the end of the set.
Finite and Infinite sets Finite set – a set that has a definite number of members EXAMPLES :{ 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 } { q, w, e, r, t, y } { 1, 2, 3, 4, …, 15, 16, 17 } The dots show that the pattern established in the beginning of the set continues up to the end of the set. So the numbers 5 thru 14 would be elements in this set.
Finite and Infinite sets Infinite set – a set that has the … at the beginning or end of the list. This set continues in that pattern before or after the dots for an infinite time. EXAMPLES :{ 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, … } - the even numbers continue to (+) infinity
Finite and Infinite sets Infinite set – a set that has the … at the beginning or end of the list. This set continues in that pattern before or after the dots for an infinite time. EXAMPLES :{ 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, … } - the even numbers continue to (+) infinity { …, - 3, - 2, - 1, 0 } - this set starts at (-) infinity and the stops at zero
SUBSETS : - are a smaller version of what is contained in an original set
SUBSETS : - are a smaller version of what is contained in an original set - a set can be its own subset since the members are all contained in the original set
SUBSETS : - are a smaller version of what is contained in an original set - a set can be its own subset since the members are all contained in the original set EXAMPLES :Given the set { m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u }, is { m, o, r } a subset of the original set ?
SUBSETS : - are a smaller version of what is contained in an original set - a set can be its own subset since the members are all contained in the original set EXAMPLES :Given the set { m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u }, is { m, o, r } a subset of the original set ? YES, because m, o and r are all members of the original set

NO, even though s, p, o, and r are in the original set, t isn’t.
