Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

Let there be three non-empty, non-overlapping sets; inside a universal set U. This creates 8 regions marked as: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h. Statement1: $ A-(B-C)=(A-B)\cup C $ LHS represent region a, RHS represent a, d, g. Hence, this is not correct. Statement2: $ A-(B\cup C)=(A-B)-C $ LHS represents, region a? RHS also represent a. Hence, only statement 2 is correct.
