Prove: If A, B, C are sets, then (A-B) X C = (AXC) - (BXC), where "A-B" is the set containing all elements of A that are not in B, and AXC denotes the Cartesian product between A and C. Obviously, to prove this, one must show that for any ordered pair (x,y), if it is contained in the set on the left side of the equation, it is necessarily in the one on the right, and vice versa. The proof seems almost obvious. I just want someone to write down a set of logical steps showing how they arrive at the above statement.
