Answer:
-2
Assumption:
Find the value of x such that .
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms:
This is not too bad too factor on the left hand side since 2(2)=4 and 2+2=4.
So we need to solve:
Subtract 2 on both sides:
Let's check:
0 was the desired output of .
The set X is convex.
In geometry, a subset of an affine space over the real numbers, or more broadly a subset of a Euclidean space, is said to be convex if it contains the entire line segment connecting any two points in the subset. A solid cube is an example of a convex set, whereas anything hollow or with an indent, such as a crescent shape, is not. Alternatively, a convex region is a subset that crosses every line into a single line segment.
b)The set X is convex as any two points on the set X is included in the whole set as x>0. So a line joining any two points on the set X is completely inside the set x.
c)set X is not a closed set as the compliment of the set is not an open set.
d)Set X is not bounded. If a set S contains both upper and lower bounds, it is said to be bounded. A set of real numbers is therefore said to be bounded if it fits inside a defined range. hence set x is not bounded.
