Question

2.1.22

List all the elements of the following set. Use set notation and the listing method to describe the set.
x is an odd integer between - 2 and 9
Express the set using set notation and the listing method.
(Use a comma to separate answers as needed. Use ascending order.)

Answer 1

S = {-1, 1, 3, 5, 7}

Explanation:

Given the set

x is an odd integer between - 2 and 9

Odd numbers between -2 and 9 are -1, 1, 3, 5, 7

Remember that -2 and 9 are excluded since the odd numbers must be in between the 2 values.

Hence the required set is S = {-1, 1, 3, 5, 7}
