Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Proof: Suppose that it is false that ##J \subseteq A##. Then ##\exists x (x \in J ~~\text{and}~~ x \not \in A)## is true. But this is a contradiction, since ##\exists x (x \in J ~~\text{and}~~ x \not \in A)## is false also, since there exists no element in the empty set.
