Suppose U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} is the universal set and P = {1, 2, 3, 4}. What is P’?

Question

(1 point)
A. {5, 6, 7, 8}
B. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
C. {1, 2, 3, 4}
D. cannot be determined

Answer 1

P' refers to the complement of set P, which includes all the elements in U that are not in P. In this case, since U consists of the numbers 1 through 8 and P consists of the numbers 1 through 4, the elements in P' are 5, 6, 7, and 8.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. {5, 6, 7, 8}.
