The set A = {x : x is a positive integer and x² < 40} in roster form is:

A{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
B{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
C{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
D{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Positive integers x with x² < 40: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36 — all < 40 7² = 49 > 40. So x ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Note x is a POSITIVE integer so 0 is excluded.
