CHAPTER 2 Set Theory

2.2 Subsets

Objectives Recognize subsets and use the notation . Recognize proper subsets and use the notation . Determine the number of subsets of a set. Apply concepts of subsets and equivalent sets to infinite sets.

Subsets The notation A  B means that A is not a subset of B. Set A is not a subset of set B if there is at least one element of set A that is not an element of set B. Every set is a subset of itself.

Example: Using the Symbols  and  Write  or  in the blank to form a true statement. A = {1, 3, 5, 7} B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 } A ____ B Set A is a subset of B. A = {x│x is a letter in the word proof} A = {y│y is a letter in the word roof} Set A is not a subset of B.  

Proper Subsets

Example: Using the Symbols  and  Write ,  , or both in the blank to form a true statement: A = {x | x is a person and x lives in San Francisco} B = {x | x is a person and x lives in California} A ____B Solution: A ,  B A = { 2, 4, 6, 8} B = { 2, 8, 4, 6} Solution: A  B

Subsets and the Empty Set

The Number of Subsets of a Given Set As we increase the number of elements in the set by one, the number of subsets doubles. The number of subsets of a set with n elements is 2n. The number of proper subsets of a set with n elements is 2n – 1.

Example: Finding the Number of Subsets and Proper Subsets Find the number of subsets and the number of proper subsets. {a, b, c, d, e } There are 5 elements so there are 25 = 32 subsets and 25 − 1 = 31 proper subsets. b. {x | x   and 9 ≤ x ≤ 15 } In roster form, we see that there are 7 elements: { 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 } There are 27 = 128 subsets and 27 − 1 = 127 proper subsets.

The Number of Subsets of Infinite Sets There are א0 natural numbers. It has 2א0 subsets. It has 2א0 – 1 proper subsets 2א0 > א0 Denote 2א0 by א1 א1 > א0 א0 is the “smallest” transfinite cardinal number in an infinite hierarchy of different infinities.
