Given that P = {x : 1 \(\leq x \leq 6\)}, and Q = {x : 2 \(\leq x \leq 10\)} where x is an integer. Find n(P \(\cap\) Q)
Answer Details
The intersection of two sets, denoted by A ∩ B, is the set of elements that are in both set A and set B. In this case, P ∩ Q represents the set of integers that are between 1 and 6, and also between 2 and 10.
The smallest integer in the intersection is 2, and the largest is 6. Therefore, the set P ∩ Q is {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. The number of elements in this set is 5.
Hence, the answer is: n(P ∩ Q) = 5.
