Which of the following is an example of a set?

  1. The collection of all prime numbers.

  2. The number 5.

  3. The operation of addition.

  4. The concept of infinity.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects, and the collection of all prime numbers is an example of a set.

What is the empty set?

  1. A set with no elements.

  2. A set with only one element.

  3. A set with an infinite number of elements.

  4. A set that contains itself.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The empty set is a set that contains no elements, and it is often denoted by the symbol ∅ or {}.

Which of the following is an example of a subset?

  1. The set of all even numbers.

  2. The set of all prime numbers.

  3. The set of all real numbers.

  4. The set of all complex numbers.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A subset is a set that is contained within another set, and the set of all even numbers is a subset of the set of all real numbers.

What is the union of two sets?

  1. The set of all elements that are in either set.

  2. The set of all elements that are in both sets.

  3. The set of all elements that are not in either set.

  4. The set of all elements that are not in both sets.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The union of two sets is the set of all elements that are in either set, and it is often denoted by the symbol ∪.

What is the intersection of two sets?

  1. The set of all elements that are in either set.

  2. The set of all elements that are in both sets.

  3. The set of all elements that are not in either set.

  4. The set of all elements that are not in both sets.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The intersection of two sets is the set of all elements that are in both sets, and it is often denoted by the symbol ∩.

What is the complement of a set?

  1. The set of all elements that are in the set.

  2. The set of all elements that are not in the set.

  3. The set of all elements that are in both sets.

  4. The set of all elements that are not in both sets.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The complement of a set is the set of all elements that are not in the set, and it is often denoted by the symbol ¬A or A'.

What is the power set of a set?

  1. The set of all subsets of the set.

  2. The set of all elements of the set.

  3. The set of all complements of the set.

  4. The set of all unions of the set.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The power set of a set is the set of all subsets of the set, and it is often denoted by the symbol P(A).

What is a relation?

  1. A set of ordered pairs.

  2. A set of unordered pairs.

  3. A set of elements.

  4. A set of subsets.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A relation is a set of ordered pairs, where each ordered pair consists of two elements from a set.

What is a function?

  1. A relation that assigns to each element of a set a unique element of another set.

  2. A relation that assigns to each element of a set a unique element of the same set.

  3. A relation that assigns to each element of a set a set of elements.

  4. A relation that assigns to each element of a set a subset of the set.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A function is a relation that assigns to each element of a set a unique element of another set.

What is the domain of a function?

  1. The set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the codomain.

  2. The set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the range.

  3. The set of all elements that are in the function.

  4. The set of all elements that are not in the function.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The domain of a function is the set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the codomain.

What is the range of a function?

  1. The set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the domain.

  2. The set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the codomain.

  3. The set of all elements that are in the function.

  4. The set of all elements that are not in the function.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The range of a function is the set of all elements that are assigned to elements of the codomain.

What is the inverse of a function?

  1. A function that assigns to each element of the range a unique element of the domain.

  2. A function that assigns to each element of the domain a unique element of the range.

  3. A function that assigns to each element of the domain a set of elements.

  4. A function that assigns to each element of the range a subset of the domain.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The inverse of a function is a function that assigns to each element of the range a unique element of the domain.

What is a limit?

  1. The value that a function approaches as the input approaches a certain value.

  2. The value that a function approaches as the output approaches a certain value.

  3. The value that a function approaches as the domain approaches a certain value.

  4. The value that a function approaches as the range approaches a certain value.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A limit is the value that a function approaches as the input approaches a certain value.

What is a derivative?

  1. The rate of change of a function with respect to its input.

  2. The rate of change of a function with respect to its output.

  3. The rate of change of a function with respect to its domain.

  4. The rate of change of a function with respect to its range.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A derivative is the rate of change of a function with respect to its input.
