Sharon Acevedo · Answer 1

A) the integers greater than 10

countable infinite: 1 - > 11; 2 - > 12; 3 - > 13; 4-> 14; 5->15; ...

b) the odd negative integers

countable infinite: 1-> - 1; 2-> - 3; 3-> - 5; 4-> - 7; 5-> - 9; ...

c) the integers with absolute value less than 1,000,000

finite (-999,999; - 999,998; - 999,997; ... 0; ...; 999,997; 999,998; 999,999)

d) the real numbers between 0 and 2

uncountable

e) the set A _ Z + where A = {2, 3}

finite (it is empty)

f) the integers that are multiples of 10

countable infinite: 1-> 10; 2-> - 10; 3-> 20; 4-> - 20; 5-> 30; 6-> - 30; ...
