SECTION A: Compulsory QUESTION 1 Consider the subsets \( A=[1,4], B=(2,8) \) and \( C=[3,6) \) of the universal set \( (0,10] \). Find each of the following sets and display them on the number line. i) \( (A \cap B) \) ii) C' iii) \( B^{\prime} \cap A \) iv) \( (A \cup B)^{\prime} \) [10 Marks] b) The quadratic equation \( 2 x^{2}-4 x+5=0 \) roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \). Find the value of: i) \( (\alpha-\beta)^{2} \) [4 Marks] ii) \( \frac{1}{\alpha}+\frac{1}{\beta} \) [4 Marks] c) By using the Synthetic method.

Step 1
Set A is the closed interval \([1,4]\), which includes the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. Set B is the open interval \((2,8)\), which includes all numbers between 2 and 8, but not including 2 and 8 themselves. Show more…
