Why is it important to be able to identify sets and set theory as related to business operations?
The theory of numbers is based on the property of sets of different kinds of numbers.
Modern set theory was developed by Georg Cantor and Richard Dedekind in the late nineteenth century.
Im not sure if there is any application of set notation and set theory, however set notation is important when you start learning about the domains and ranges of functions.
The answer is 0 because anything multiplied by 0 is 0. This can be established using the set theory. If each set contains 8 units, but you have no sets at all (0), then you have 0 units. No matter how large a set is, having no sets means that you have no units.
The set theory is a branch of mathematics that studies collections of objects called sets. The set theory explains nearly all definitions of mathematical objects.
Why is it important to be able to identify sets and set theory as related to business operations?
Set theory is the mathematical study of sets. Set theory in business is important because it assists with the operations and planning in a business.
The theory of numbers is based on the property of sets of different kinds of numbers.
There is no such thing as a "set of all sets". To be more precise, the idea of a "set of all sets" leads to contradictions; therefore this term is avoided in set theory. Check the Wikipedia article on "Universal set" for more details.

In mathematics, sets are simply collections of objects. Set theory is the branch of mathematics that studies these collections of objects. For more information, please refer to the related link below.

= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzy_set = = Fuzzy set =Jump to: navigation, searchFuzzy sets are sets whose elements have degrees of membership. Fuzzy sets have been introduced by Lotfi A. Zadeh (1965) as an extension of the classical notion of set. In classical set theory, the membership of elements in a set is assessed in binary terms according to a bivalent condition - an element either belongs or does not belong to the set. By contrast, fuzzy set theory permits the gradual assessment of the membership of elements in a set; this is described with the aid of a membership function valued in the real unit interval [0, 1]. Fuzzy sets generalize classical sets, since the indicator functions of classical sets are special cases of the membership functions of fuzzy sets, if the latter only take values 0 or 1.
Modern set theory was developed by Georg Cantor and Richard Dedekind in the late nineteenth century.
The collection of all sets minus the empty set is not a set (it is too big to be a set) but instead a proper class. See Russell's paradox for why it would be problematic to consider this a set. According to axioms of standard ZFC set theory, not every intuitive "collection" of sets is a set; we must proceed carefully when reasoning about what is a set according to ZFC.
