How many points are there in the following set? [closed]












0














Let us consider the following set:



$A={(x, y, z) in Bbb{R}timesBbb{R}timesBbb{R} : ax+by+c=0,z=0 },cneq 0$ and
$B={(x, y, z) in Bbb{R}timesBbb{R} timesBbb{R} : ax+by=0,z=0}$.
Then $A, B$ are two infinite sets. How to determine the cardinality of the set $A-B$?

          I am assuming $a$, $b$, and $c$ are fixed real numbers.



          If $(x,y,z)in B$, then $z=0$ and $ax+by=0$. But then $ax+byneq -c$, since $cneq 0$, so $(x,y,z)notin A$. Therefore, $A-B=A$.



          This is really just a proof that two parallel (but distinct) lines have no points of intersection!
