    MHB Can you find a counterexample for this set theory statement?

    How would you disprove if z ∈ (f(X) ∩ f(Y)) then z ∈ f(X ∩ Y)? (Where f: A -> B, if X, Y ⊆ A.) I'm just not sure how to approach this.

    MHB Set Theory for Beginners: How is A' ⊆ A and its Complement a Subset of A?

    Just to be clear in this example, {a,b} would then be the image, wouldn't it? I think I'm understanding it now...

    MHB Set Theory for Beginners: How is A' ⊆ A and its Complement a Subset of A?

    Hi Euge, Thanks for your reply, but maybe I should rephrase my question: Could you explain what "the image of a set A' ⊆ A is the set: f(A') = {b | b = f(a) for some a ∈ A'}" actually means? Could you break it down? I don't understand what an image of a set is even after reading the definition...

    Understanding Sets & Images: A Beginner's Guide to Set Theory

    Could someone please explain how the image of a set A' ⊆ A is the set: f(A') = {b | b = f(a) for some a ∈ A'}. And how can the complement of A be a subset of A? Forgive my ignorance here, I'm a beginning student of set theory. Edit: Maybe I should rephrase my question: Could you explain what...
