Anyways, you're welcome

Don't be too hard on yourself, this is horribly confusing
Fun fact about P: if you stick an infinite set in, you get again an infinite set, but with a larger infinity than the first.

Ok here's another one i've no clue where to start as it wasn't covered in class:
2.1.43. Find the truth set of each of these predicates where the domain is the set of integers.
P(x): x2 < 3
Q(x): x2 > x
c) R(x): 2x + 1 = 0
What's x2 suppposed to be?
I think you're simply supposed to give all the values for x such that these inequalities hold...
Once again the values are not given, going to get to class early tomorrow and ask my professor how the hell i'm supposed to do this.. He didn't even cover it T.T
