lets list \(U\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\{-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5 \}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now go ahead and list the numbers in that set that are less than or equal to 4

OpenStudy (mackenzie2013):

−5,−4,−3,−2,−1,0,1,2,3,4, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, now what is in U that is not in that set you wrote (hint, only one number)

OpenStudy (mackenzie2013):

5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (mackenzie2013):

So 5 is the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess they want you to write \[\{5\}\]

OpenStudy (mackenzie2013):
