Let A be the set of all integers which are 3 more than some perfect square. Here are some examples of such integers are: 4 = 1 + 3, 7 = 4 + 3, 3 = 0 + 3, 28 = 25 + 3, Write out the set A as succinctly as you can, using the set-builder notation.

Answer:

[tex]A = \{x|x\ E\ n^2 + 3, n \geq 0 \}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Represent set A using set-builder notation

First, we need to understand the general rule:

[tex]0^2 + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3[/tex]

[tex]1^2 + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4[/tex]

[tex]2^2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7[/tex]

[tex]5^2 + 3= 25 + 3 = 28[/tex]

In general, we can write it as:

[tex]n^2 + 3[/tex]

Next, is to determine the values of n;

Since [tex]n^2[/tex] is a perfect square of [tex]n[/tex], then, the values of n is 0,1,2,3,.....

Hence; Set A can be represented as: [tex]A = \{x|x\ E\ n^2 + 3, n \geq 0 \}[/tex]
