Write the following sets in the set-builder form:
(i) (3, 6, 9, 12) (ii) {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}
(iii) {5, 25, 125, 625} (iv) {2, 4, 6 …}
(v) {1, 4, 9 … 100}
(i) (3, 6, 9, 12) (ii) {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}
(iii) {5, 25, 125, 625} (iv) {2, 4, 6 …}
(v) {1, 4, 9 … 100}
Solution and Explanation
(i) {3, 6, 9, 12} = {x: x = 3n, n ∈ N and 1 \(≤\) n \(≤\) 4}
(ii) {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}
It can be seen that 2 = 21, 4 = 22, 8 = 23, 16 = 24, and 32 = 25.
{2, 4, 8, 16, 32} = {x: x = 2n, n ∈ N and 1 \(≤\) n \(≤\) 5}
(iii) {5, 25, 125, 625}
It can be seen that 5 = 51, 25 = 52, 125 = 53, and 625 = 54.
∴ {5, 25, 125, 625} = {x: x = 5n, n ∈ N and 1\( ≤\) n \(≤\) 4}
(iv) {2, 4, 6 …}
It is a set of all even natural numbers.
∴ {2, 4, 6 …} = {x: x is an even natural number}
(v) {1, 4, 9 … 100}
It can be seen that 1 = 12, 4 = 22, 9 = 32 …100 = 102.
∴ {1, 4, 9… 100} = {x: x = n2, n ∈ N and 1 \(≤\) n \(≤\) 10}

Concepts Used:
Sets
In mathematics, a set is a well-defined collection of objects. Sets are named and demonstrated using capital letter. In the set theory, the elements that a set comprises can be any sort of thing: people, numbers, letters of the alphabet, shapes, variables, etc.
