Having browsed online, I've seen ads for Amazon, Ford, and Newegg. Some online retailers that I've purchased from are Amazon, Walmart, and Lowe's. Therefore:

A = {Amazon, Ford, Newegg}

B = {Amazon, Walmart, Lowe's}

Cardinality of set A: n(A)=3, therefore m=3

Cardinality of set B: n(B)=3, therefore n=3

First & last elements of set A: a[1]=Amazon, & a[3]=Newegg

First & last elements of set B: b[1]=Amazon & b[3]=Lowe's

A trace table illustrates how both sets are related:

Set A

1

2

3

Set B

1

1

1

found

yes

no

no

answer

A⊆B

A⊄B

A⊄B

The table illustrates a portion of the trace, where one intersection exists: Amazon. Otherwise, if the trace continues, no other intersections can be found. Overall, set A cannot be a subset of set B due to sharing only one element with each other.

Hello Everyone,

1.

            Set A: Xfinity-NY Times, USAA-I Heart eating, The Nature Conservatory-PC Gamer

            Set B: Target, Amazon, Walmart, Food Lion

2.

            m= 3

            n= 4

            a[1]=Xfinity

            a[m]=The Nature Conservatory

            b[1]=Target

            b[n]=Food Lion

            My algorithm shows that A ⊈ B. They are completely unrelated in every aspect somehow. This is a nightmare and I hope I have done this right.
