Solution

First, let's understand what each symbol means:

  • "Ƥ(A)" represents the power set of A, which is the set of all subsets of A.
  • "⋂" represents the intersection of two sets, which is a set that contains all elements that are common to both sets.
  • "A ⋂ B" represents the intersection of sets A and B.
  • "⊘" represents the empty set, which is a set with no elements.

Now, let's calculate each part of the question:

  1. Ƥ(A) = {⊘, {1}, {2}, {{1}}}
  2. Ƥ(B) = {⊘, {{1}}, {{1, 2}}}
  3. Ƥ(A) ⋂ Ƥ(B) = {⊘, {{1}}}

Next, let's calculate Ƥ(A ⋂ B):

  1. A ⋂ B = {{1}}
  2. Ƥ(A ⋂ B) = {⊘, {{1}}}

Comparing the results from step 3 and step 5, we can see that Ƥ(A) ⋂ Ƥ(B) = Ƥ(A ⋂ B), and both are equal to {⊘, {{1}}}.

Therefore, the correct answer is b. {⊘, {{1}}}.
