Question

M=(1,2,3,8,10) and N=(8,1,x,3,2) if m=n what is the value of x

Answer 1

The value of x obtained by comparing the elements in the set M and the elements in the set N is x = 10

What is a set?; A set is a collection of different items, known as elements or members, which can be include numbers, symbols, lines or other objects.

The elements in the set M are 1, 2, 3, 8, and 10

The elements in the set N are; 8, 1, x, 3, and 2

Arranging the elements in the set N in order of increasing magnitude, we get;

The elements in the set N are; 1, 2, 3, 8, and x

Comparing the elements in the set N and the elements in the set M, we get

The value of x is 10
