If C is an infinite set and B is a finite set then C\B is an infinite set.
C\B means the complement of B relative to C
Ok so I was thinking of doing this by contradiction.
I have Assume C\B is a finite set. Then there exist a function[itex]\alpha[/itex] that is bijective from C\B to Nk for some k.
Now this is were I am stuck. Obviously if you have something that is infinite and you take away some finite number of thigs is still going to be infinite but how do you write that mathmatically?
