What is the nature of the number of elements in A = {x : x is a natural number greater than 50}?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Infinite
The natural numbers greater than 50 are 51, 52, 53, 54, and so on. There is no greatest natural number, so new members can always be found beyond any listed value. The set therefore continues without end and has infinitely many elements. Hence, the correct answer is option D, infinite.
