Question

For three sets A, B and C, show that.
$\text{A}\subset\text{B}\Rightarrow\text{C}-\text{B}\subset\text{C}-\text{A}.$

✓

Answer

Given $\text{A}\subset\text{B}$
To show: $\text{C} - \text{B }\subset\text{ C} - \text{A}$
Let $\text{x}\in\text{C}-\text{B}$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}\in\text{C and x}\not\in\text{B}$ [by defination of C - B]
$\Rightarrow \text{x}\in\text{C and x}\not\in\text{A}$ $[\because\text{A}\subset\text{B}]$
This can be seen by the venn diagram above
$\Rightarrow \text{x}\in\text{C - A}$ [by defination of C - A]
Thus $\text{x}\in\text{C - B}\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\text{C - A.}$ Thus is true for all $\text{x}\in\text{C}-\text{B}$
$\therefore\text{C - B}\subset\text{C - A}.$

A diagnostic test has a probability 0.95 of giving a positive result when applied to a person suffering from a certain disease, and a probability 0.10 of giving a (false) positive result when applied to a non-sufferer. It is estimated that 0.5% of the population are sufferers. Suppose that the test is now administered to a person about whom we have no relevant information relating to the disease (apart from the fact that he/she comes from this population). Calculate the probability that: (i) given a positive result, the person is a sufferer.(ii)given a negative result, the person is a non-sufferer.

Discuss the continuity of the following function at the point or on the interval indicated against them. If the function is discontinuous, identify the type of discontinuity and state whether the discontinuity is removable. If it has a removable discontinuity, redefine the function so that it becomes continuous:
