Solution

To determine if the statement is true or false, let's evaluate the Cartesian product A×B A \times B step by step.

1. ### Break Down the Problem

We need to calculate the Cartesian product of sets A A and B B . The Cartesian product A×B A \times B is defined as the set of all ordered pairs (a,b) (a, b) where a a is an element from set A A and b b is an element from set B B .

2. ### Relevant Concepts

The formula for the Cartesian product is: A×B={(a,b)aA,bB} A \times B = \{(a, b) | a \in A, b \in B\}

3. ### Analysis and Detail

Given:

  • A={7,8} A = \{7, 8\}
  • B={2,4,6} B = \{2, 4, 6\}

Now, we will find all possible pairs:

  • For a=7 a = 7 :

    • (7,2) (7, 2)
    • (7,4) (7, 4)
    • (7,6) (7, 6)
  • For a=8 a = 8 :

    • (8,2) (8, 2)
    • (8,4) (8, 4)
    • (8,6) (8, 6)

Thus, the complete set of ordered pairs is: A×B={(7,2),(7,4),(7,6),(8,2),(8,4),(8,6)} A \times B = \{(7, 2), (7, 4), (7, 6), (8, 2), (8, 4), (8, 6)\}

4. ### Verify and Summarize

The calculated Cartesian product matches the set mentioned in the question:

  • The statement provided is indeed true as A×B A \times B equals {(7,2),(7,4),(7,6),(8,2),(8,4),(8,6)} \{(7, 2), (7, 4), (7, 6), (8, 2), (8, 4), (8, 6)\} .

Final Answer

True
