Prove for all sets A,B, and C :
A complement UNION B complement = (A intercept B) complement

help me out here please

If you (or your teacher) finds drawing Venn diagrams sufficient as a proof, you can just draw two Venn diagrams for the cases where A and B are disjoint or have an overlap and show that if you shade the left hand side or the right hand side, you will get the same shaded area. (I personally wouldn't consider that a real hard proof, however).
Do you know how to indicate the different components in a Venn diagram (e.g. union, complement, etc)?
 
this proof is to show why the two pictures/diagram are the same...
 
So, do you know how to draw Venn diagrams at all? Because if not, then the problem is not in the proof but in drawing the diagrams. And if you do, there is nothing to it, but drawing them.

Also, you asked this question before, right?
 
You can also try googling DeMorgan's laws for more information.
 
Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
