# Exercise 3.2.5

## 1

${\displaystyle \{x\in R|x>0\}}$

## 2

${\displaystyle \{x\in Z|}$ there exist ${\displaystyle y\in Z}$ such that ${\displaystyle x=2*y+1\}}$

## 3

${\displaystyle \{x\in R|}$ there exist ${\displaystyle y\in N}$ such that ${\displaystyle 5*y*x=1\}}$

## 5

${\displaystyle \{x\in N|}$ there exist ${\displaystyle y\in N}$ such that ${\displaystyle x=4*y+1\}}$

# Exercise 3.2.9

A = {1,2}, B = {1,2,{1,2}}

# Exercise 3.2.10

Using the definition of a subset: For any xA, then xB, and because xB, xC. The same goes for any yB or any zC.

# Exercise 3.2.12

False. Counterexample. Let A be a set of even integers and B a set of odd integers.Then A and B are not equal, and A is not a subset of B, and B is not a subset of A. A and B are disjoint.

# Exercise 3.2.13

${\displaystyle {\mathcal {P}}(A)=\{\emptyset ,x,y,z,w,\{x,y\},\{x,z\},\{x,w\},\{y,z\},\{y,w\},\{z,w\},\{x,y,z\},\{x,y,w\},\{x,z,w\},\{y,z,w\},\{x,y,z,w\}\}}$

# Exercise 3.2.15

## 1

${\displaystyle {\mathcal {P}}({\mathcal {P}}(\emptyset )=\{\emptyset ,\{\emptyset \}\}}$

## 2

[itex]\mathcal P( \mathcal P ( \{ \emptyset \} ) = \{ \emptyset, \{ \emptyset \}, \{ \{ \
