Exercise 3.4.8

  • \(\bullet\) Show that Axiom 3.4 can be deduced from Axiom 3.1, Axiom 3.3 and Axiom 3.11.
  • \(A\) and \(B\) sets
  • \(\Vdash\) { Axiom 3.3 }
    • \(C = \{ A, B \}\) exists
  • \(\vdash\) { Axiom 3.11 }
    • There exists a set \(\bigcup C\) such that \(x\in\bigcup C\iff(x\in S\text{ for some }S\in C)\)
  • \(\vdash\) { Axiom 3.1, Axiom 3.3 \(S\) can be either \(A\) or \(B\) }
    • There exists a set \(\bigcup C\) such that \(x\in\bigcup C\iff(x\in A \text{ or } x\in B \text{ or both})\)
  • \(\vdash\) { let \(A \cup B := \bigcup C\) }
  • \(\square\)
