4 4 votes Let $\text{A, B}$ be two disjoint non-empty sets. Let $\text{M}$ be the universal set and $\text{A} \cup \text{B}$ is a proper subset of $\mathrm{M}$. For any set $\mathrm{S}$, let $\mathrm{S}^{\prime}$ be the set of those elements which are in $\mathrm{M}$, but not in $\mathrm{S}$.Which of the following sets forms a partition of $\text{M}$? $\{\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}\}$ $\left\{\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}_{,} \mathrm{A}^{\prime} \cap \mathrm{B}^{\prime}\right\}$ $\left\{\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B}, \mathrm{A}^{\prime} \cap \mathrm{B}^{\prime}\right\}$ $\left\{\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B}, \mathrm{A}-\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{B}-\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{A}^{\prime} \cap \mathrm{B}^{\prime}\right\}$ Set Theory & Algebra goclasses-scholarship-test1 goclasses set-theory&algebra set-theory multiple-selects two-marks + – GO Classes 901 views answer comment Share Follow Print 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
3 3 votes $\text{A} \cap \text{B}$ is empty set, and empty set is never a part of any partition. Partition of a set $\text{S}$ is a collection/set of non-empty disjoint subsets of $\mathrm{S}$ whose union is $\mathrm{S}$.

More precisely, empty set is a partition of an empty set. 2 2 replyShare Deepak Poonia commented Aug 8, 2022 reply Follow flag That’s right.
