I have a discrete math question I will type it below

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[{2n+1 : n \in P}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was supposed to be in braces...

Miracrown (miracrown):

What does the question say P means, and what does the question say it wants you to do? Is it to show 2n + 1 is odd? does the question want you to state what values 2n + 1 can be?

Miracrown (miracrown):

ok, so it's a set.

Miracrown (miracrown):

What else does the question say?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to list any 5 elements (if there are 5)

Miracrown (miracrown):

does it tell you what P means?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

positive integers

Miracrown (miracrown):

This is what the question is asking for. Think of some positive integers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I tried answering 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 but those were wrong...

Miracrown (miracrown):

|dw:1403583437296:dw| I'll just use some easy ones. Make sure they are positive integers. call each of these n. put them into 2n + 1 one by one.
