Question

let j = {12, 17, 22, 24, 25, 29, 34} and k = {25, 29, 34}. what is the complement of k in j?
{12, 17, 22, 24}
{12, 22, 24, 34}
{-17, -12}
{12, 22}

Explanation:

Step1: Define complement of K in J

The complement of set \(K\) in set \(J\) (denoted \(J \setminus K\)) is the set of elements in \(J\) that are not in \(K\).

Step2: Identify elements in J not in K

List elements of \(J = \{12, 17, 22, 24, 25, 29, 34\}\) and remove elements of \(K = \{25, 29, 34\}\).
Remaining elements: \(12, 17, 22, 24\)

Answer:

{12, 17, 22, 24}
