SOLUTION

The roster method is defined as a way to show the elements of a set by listing the elements inside of brackets.

To do so, we will first have to solve for x

Given that


\begin{gathered} x+7=4 \\ \\ adding\text{ -7 to both sides} \\ \\ x+7-7=4-7 \\ \\ x=4-7 \\ \\ x=-3 \\ \end{gathered}

Therefore, we have


\lbrace-3\rbrace

From the options given, we have the answer as None of these
