6.
A x B = {(3,2), (3,4), (5,2), (5,4)}
We have A = {set of all first coordinates of elements of A x B}. Therefore, A = {3,5}
B = {set of all second coordinates of elements of A x B}. Therefore, B = {2,4}
Thus A = {3,5} and B = {2,4}.

Given t (C) = F where \(F=\frac{9 C}{5}+32\)
C - Celsius, F - Fahrenheit
\(\therefore t(C)=\frac{9 C}{5}+32 \)

(ii) \(t(28) =\frac{9(28)}{5}+32=\frac{252}{5}+32 \)
= 50.4 + 32 = 82.4oF
(iii) \(t(-10)=\frac{9(-10)}{5}+32\) = -18 + 32 - 14oF
(iv) Given t (C) = 212
\(\therefore \frac{9 C}{5}+32 =212 \Rightarrow \frac{9 C}{5}=212-32 \)
\(C =180 \times \frac{5}{9}=100^{\circ} C \)
(v) The temperature when the Celsius value is equal to the Fahrenheit value.
F = C
\(\frac{9 C}{5}+32=C \)
\(\frac{9 C}{5}-C=-32 \Rightarrow \frac{9 C-5 C}{5}=-32 \)
\(4 C=-32 \times 5 \Rightarrow C=-\frac{160}{4} \)
oC = -40

\(B\cup C\) = {2,3,4,5}
A x (B U C) = {0,1} x {2,3,4,5}
= {{0,2},(0,3),(0,4),(0,5),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5)} ...(1)
A x B = {0,1} x {2,3,4}
= {(0,2),(0,3),(0,4),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4)}
A x C = {0,1} x {3,5}
= {{0,3},(0,5),(1,3),(1,5)}
\((A\times B)\cup (A\cup C)\) = {(0,2),(0,3),(0,4),(0,5),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5)} ...(2)
From (1) and (2),it is clear that
\(A\times (B\cup C)=(A\times B)\cup (A\times C)\)
