Which idea is correct for G = {x : x is the name of a month having 31 days}?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It is a finite set
The governing concept is classification of sets by size and clarity of definition. The condition “month having 31 days” is objective and identifies exactly seven names: January, March, May, July, August, October, and December. The set therefore has a limited number of clearly specified elements, so it is finite. It is neither empty nor infinite, and the rule is well-defined. Thus option A is correct.
