Question 7:
Is it true that for any sets A and B, P (A) ∪ P (B) = P (A ∪ B)? Justify your answer.
False
Let A = {0, 1} and B = {1, 2}
∴ A ∪ B = {0, 1, 2}
P(A) = {Φ, {0}, {1}, {0, 1}}
P(B) = {Φ, {1}, {2}, {1, 2}}
P(A ∪ B) = {Φ, {0}, {1}, {2}, {0, 1}, {1, 2}, {0, 2}, {0, 1, 2}}
P(A) ∪ P(B) = {Φ, {0}, {1}, {0, 1}, {2}, {1, 2}}
∴ P(A) ∪ P(B) ≠ P(A ∪ B)
