Answer:

{3, 4, 6, 7, 8}

Explanation:

For sets U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, A = {1, 2, 5, 6}, and C = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, you want the set {A∩C}'.

A∩C

The set A∩C contains the elements that are common to both sets. Those are {1, 2, 5}.

{A∩C}'

The set of interest contains the elements of U that are not in A∩C. Those are ...

{3, 4, 6, 7, 8}

__

Additional comment

DeMorgan's theorem tells us the desired set is equivalent to A'∪C', or {3, 4, 7, 8}∪{6, 7, 8}. That, too, is ...

(3, 4, 6, 7, 8}
