Here is an answer to find the union of two arithmetic progression. How to find a general formula for union of two arithmetic progressions
But, is there a formula to find the union of the sets of two non-arithmetic, non-geometric progressions?
For example,the union of $ {2^n}$ and $ \frac{2^n - 1}{3}$ ?
By union, I mean the union of two sets like if the progressions are 2n(even numbers) and 2n+1 (odd numbers) then the union would be n (whole numbers)
If progressions are
P1 = {0,2,4,6,...} and
P2 = {1,3,5,7,...}
Then the union
$ P_1 \space U \space P_2 = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,..} $
