Final answer:

To prove the statement (D) Let A,B,C be sets. Suppose A⊂C and B⊂C. Then A⊂B if C\B⊂C\A, we need to show that if A⊂B, then C\B⊂C\A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question, we are asked to prove the statement ⟩D⟪: (D) Let A,B,C be sets. Suppose A⊂C and B⊂C. Then A⊂B if C\B⊂C\A. To prove this, we need to show that if A⊂B, then C\B⊂C\A.

Let's start by assuming A⊂B. Now, let's consider an arbitrary object x. If x∈C\B, then x∈C\(A∪B). This is because A⊂B implies A∪B = B, and applying the definition of set difference. Therefore, we have shown that if A⊂B, then C\B⊂C\A.
