Question

In Exercises 1 through 4, write the set in the form&amp;nbsp;{x|P(x)}, where P(x) is a property that describes the elements of the set.1.&amp;nbsp;{2,4,6,8,10}2.&amp;nbsp;{a,e,i,o,u}3.&amp;nbsp;{1,8,27,64,125}4.&amp;nbsp;{−2,−1,0,1,2}

1.&amp;nbsp;{2,4,6,8,10}We note that the set includes all even integers from 1 to 10, hence P(x) is then the property of an even integer from 1 to 10.&amp;nbsp;{x|x&amp;nbsp;is an even integer and&amp;nbsp;1≤x≤10}2.&amp;nbsp;{a,e,i,o,u,w}We note that the set contain all vowels, hence P(x) is then the property of a letter in the alphabet that is a vowel.&amp;nbsp;{x|x&amp;nbsp;is a letter in the alphabet and x is a vowel}3.&amp;nbsp;{1,8,27,64,125}We observe that the set includes cubes of the integers 1 to 5.(13=1,23=8,33=27,43=64&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;53=125), hence P(x) is then the property that x is a cube of an integer from 1 to 5.&amp;nbsp;{x3∣x&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;is an integer and&amp;nbsp;1≤x≤5}4.&amp;nbsp;{−2,−1,0,1,2}We note that the set contains all integers from -2 to 2, hence P(x) is then the property of an integer from -2 to 2.&amp;nbsp;{x|x&amp;nbsp;is an integer and&amp;nbsp;−2≤x≤2}

In Exercises 6 through 9, write the set in the form {x|P(x)}, where P(x) is a property that describes the elements of the set. 6. {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} 7.
