If A = {x : x ∈ ℤ and x² = 9}, then A is equal to which set?

Advertisement

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: {-3, 3}

The condition x² = 9 means that x can be 3 or −3, because both (3)² and (−3)² equal 9. Both values belong to the set of integers ℤ, so both must be included in A. Therefore A = {−3, 3}. The values −9 and 9 are not solutions because the equation involves the square of x.
