Tag: finite and infinite sets

$(i)$The set of lines which are parallel to x-axis is an infinite set because line parallel to x-axis are infinite in number.
$(ii)$The set of animals living on the earth is a finite set because the number of animals living on the earth is finite (although it is quite a big number)
$(iii)$ The set of numbers which are multiple of $5$ is an infinite numbers multiples of $5$ are infinite in number.
$(iv)$ The set of the circles passing through the origin $(0,0)$ is an infinite set because infinite number of circles can pass through the origin.

$(i)$ The sets of months in a year is a finite set because it has $12$ elements.
$(ii){1,2,3,....}$ is an infinite set as it has infinite number of elements.
$(iii){1,2,3,...,99,100}$ is a finite set as it has number from $1$ to $100$ which is finite in number.
$(iv)$ The set of positive integers greater than $100$ is an infinite set because positive integers greater than $100$ are infinite in number. 

Given that:
$A={a,{b}},$
 $P(A)={\phi,a,{b},{a,{b}}}$

$(i)A={x:x\in Z: x^2 $ is even $}$
$A={...,-3,-1-1,3,...}$ which is an infinite set.
$(ii)B={x:x\in R:-2<x<-4}$
$B={...,-14,-13,-12,-11}$ so it is an infinite set.

We have to state whether the statement "$A={x|x:is:a:negative:integer:;x>-5} : is:a:finite : set$" is true or false.

Consider $A={x|x:is:a:negative:integer:;x>-5} $
                     $={-4,-3,-2,-1} $ which has finite number of elements.

So $A$ is a finite set.

Hence the given statement is true.
