Here are the elements of each set based on the given definitions:
The universal set is U={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}\mathcal{U} = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18\}.

  • A={x:x∈U and x is even}A = \{x : x \in \mathcal{U} \text{ and } x \text{ is even}\} A={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}A = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18\}

  • B={x:x∈U and x is less than 10}B = \{x : x \in \mathcal{U} \text{ and } x \text{ is less than } 10\} B={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}B = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\}

  • C={x:x∈U and x is a multiple of 3}C = \{x : x \in \mathcal{U} \text{ and } x \text{ is a multiple of } 3\} C={3,6,9,12,15,18}C = \{3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18\}

  • D={x:x∈U and x is a prime number}D = \{x : x \in \mathcal{U} \text{ and } x \text{ is a prime number}\} D={2,3,5,7,11,13,17}D = \{2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17\}

Now, let's solve each part:

a) A∪B′A \cup B'

Step 1: Find B′B'.
B′=U−B={10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}B' = \mathcal{U} - B = \{10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18\}

Step 2: Find A∪B′A \cup B'.
A∪B′={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}∪{10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}A \cup B' = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18\} \cup \{10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18\}

A∪B′={2,4,6,8,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}A \cup B' = \boxed{\{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18\}}

b) A∩C∩DA \cap C \cap D

Step 1: Find A∩CA \cap C.
A∩C={2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18}∩{3,6,9,12,15,18}A \cap C = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18\} \cap \{3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18\}
A∩C={6,12,18}A \cap C = \{6, 12, 18\}

Step 2: Find (A∩C)∩D(A \cap C) \cap D.
(A∩C)∩D={6,12,18}∩{2,3,5,7,11,13,17}(A \cap C) \cap D = \{6, 12, 18\} \cap \{2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17\}

(A∩C)∩D=∅(A \cap C) \cap D = \boxed{\emptyset}

c) B∩(C∪D)′B \cap (C \cup D)'

C∪D={2,3,5,6,7,9,11,12,13,15,17,18}C \cup D = \{2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 18\}

Step 2: Find (C∪D)′(C \cup D)'.
(C∪D)′=U−(C∪D)={1,4,8,10,14,16}(C \cup D)' = \mathcal{U} - (C \cup D) = \{1, 4, 8, 10, 14, 16\}

Step 3: Find B∩(C∪D)′B \cap (C \cup D)'.
B∩(C∪D)′={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}∩{1,4,8,10,14,16}B \cap (C \cup D)' = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\} \cap \{1, 4, 8, 10, 14, 16\}
