Explanation / Answer

a)

A(a,b) = {(3,4)}

B(a,b) = {(3,5)}

a (A B) = {(3),(3)}

aA aB = {(3)}

b)

For Sets: A(a,b) = {(3,4)}

B(a,b) = {(3,5)}

a(A-B) = {(3)}

(Aa Ba) =

For Bags: A(a,b) = {(3,4),(3,4),(3,4)}

B(a,b) = {(3,4), (3,5)}

a(A-B) = {(3),(3)}

(Aa Ba) = {(3)}

c)

A(a,b) = {(3,4),(3,5)}

a((A)) = {(3),(3)}

((Aa)) = {(3)}

d)

A(a,b) = {(3,4),(3,4),(3,4)}

B(a,b) = {(3,4), (3,5)}

(A B) = {(3,4),(3,4),(3,4),(3,4), (3,5)}

(A) (B) = {(3,4),(3,4), (3,5)}
