I was blamed for having too easy Wednesday problems. So beware! The level is coming up!
Suppose that K is a set of n elements, [tex]n\in\mathbb{N}[/tex]. Suppose that [tex]K_1,\dots,K_n,K_{n+1}[/tex] are subsets of K. Show that there exist [tex]I\textrm{ and }J\subset \{1,\dots,n,n+1\}[/tex] such that
[tex]I\cap J =\varnothing[/tex]
[tex]I\cup J\ne \varnothing[/tex]
and
[tex]\displaystyle \bigcup_{i\in I}K_i =\bigcup_{j\in J}K_j[/tex]
