What is the Proof of Equality for Sets of Random Variables?

In summary, the proof shows that the inverse image of X1^-1B1 is defined as all w in Ω such that X1(w) E B1, and this applies to all Xi, Bi. Therefore, the intersection of these events is defined as all the w in Ω that (X1,...,Xn)(w) E (B1x...xBn), which is the left hand side. Similarly, if omega is on the right hand side, the inverse image is defined as all b in (B1x...xBn) such that (X1^-1B1 n X2^-1B2 n ... n Xn^-1Bn)(b) E Ω, which is

Hey there. I'm asked to prove:

If X1,...Xn are random variables defined on a set Ω and B1,...,Bn C R1 then prove that
(X1,...,Xn)^-1 (B1x...xBn) = X1^-1B1 n X2^-1B2 n ... n Xn^-1Bn

so I think I can explain the proof, but just not write it out. This is my attempt
if omega is on the left hand side:

the inverse image of X1^-1B1 is defined as all w in Ω such that X1(w) E B1 and that would apply to all Xi, Bi.
So the intersection of those events would be defined as all the w in Ω that
(X1,...,Xn)(w) E (B1x...xBn) which is the left hand side.

Now if omega is on the right hand side:the inverse image of X1^-1B1 is defined as all b in B1 such that X1^-1(b) E Ω and that would apply to all Xi, Bi. So the intersection of those events would be defined as all the b in (B1x...xBn) such that(X1^-1B1 n X2^-1B2 n ... n Xn^-1Bn)(b) E Ω which is the right hand side. Therefore, it can be concluded that (X1,...,Xn)^-1 (B1x...xBn) = X1^-1B1 n X2^-1B2 n ... n Xn^-1Bn
 

What is "Proof of 2 sets being equal"?

"Proof of 2 sets being equal" refers to providing evidence or reasoning to show that two sets contain the exact same elements. This is important in mathematics and science to ensure the accuracy and validity of statements or equations.

Why is proving 2 sets are equal important?

Proving that 2 sets are equal is important because it ensures that the information or data being used is accurate and consistent. It also allows for easier comparisons and analysis between the two sets.

What are the different methods for proving 2 sets are equal?

There are several methods for proving that 2 sets are equal, including the method of direct proof, the method of contradiction, and the method of mathematical induction. Each method has its own set of rules and techniques to follow.

Can 2 sets be equal if they have different elements?

No, in order for 2 sets to be considered equal, they must have the exact same elements. If even one element is different between the two sets, then they are not equal.

What are some common mistakes to avoid when proving 2 sets are equal?

Some common mistakes to avoid when proving 2 sets are equal include using circular reasoning, assuming the conclusion, and not considering all possible cases. It is important to carefully follow the rules and techniques of the chosen method to avoid these mistakes.
