If A = {x : x ∈ ℤ, x² − 4x = 0}, which is the correct roster form of A?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A = {0, 4}
To find the elements, solve the condition x² − 4x = 0. Factoring gives x(x − 4) = 0, so either x = 0 or x = 4. Both solutions are integers and therefore satisfy the domain restriction x ∈ ℤ. No other value makes the equation true. Thus the roster form is A = {0, 4}, so option A is correct.
