Question

Write the following sets in roster (Tabular) form :
A2 = {x : x2 - 4x -5 = 0}

Sum

Solution

A2 = { x : x2 − 4x − 5 = 0}

∴ x2 − 4x − 5 = 0

⇒ x2 − 5x + x − 5 = 0

⇒ x (x − 5) + 1 (x − 5) = 0

⇒ (x − 5) (x + 1) = 0

∴ Either x − 5 = 0

⇒ x = 5

or

x + 1 = 0

⇒ x = −1

∴ Given set in roster (Tabular) form is  A2 = {5, −1}
