A universal set contains only sets A and B. If A∩B = Ø and A and B are not the empty set, then all of the following are true except

The correct answer among the choices provided is the third option. All of the other statements are true except A∪B={}. Both A and B are said to be non-empty. The open and close parentheses is equal to an empty set.

The correct answer is:


A∪B={}


Explanation:


Since A∩B = ∅, we know that A and B have no elements in common. This means they are disjoint.


Since the universal set is made up of A and B, and A and B have no elements in common, then A is equal to the complement of B, or A = B'.


Since A and B have no elements in common, A is not a subset of B.


Since we are told at the beginning that A and B are not the empty set, there is no way that their union would be empty. The union of A and B, or A∪B, would contain at least two distinct elements, one from A and one from B.
