Which statement is correct about the set {x : x ∈ Z, x² = 2}?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is the empty set

The equation x² = 2 has the real solutions √2 and −√2, but neither solution is an integer. Since the domain in the set-builder description is Z, only integer solutions may be included. No integer satisfies the equation, so the set has zero elements and is therefore the empty set, ∅.
