Question

write a description of the set. {13, 14, 15, 16, ...} choose the correct answer below. a. the numbers thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen. b. all natural numbers greater than 13. c. all rational numbers greater than 12. d. all natural numbers greater than 12.

Explanation:

• Option A is incorrect because the ellipsis (...) shows the set continues beyond 16.
• Option B is incorrect because it excludes 13, which is in the set.
• Option C is incorrect because the set only includes natural numbers, not all rational numbers.
• Option D is correct: natural numbers are positive integers, and the set starts at 13 (greater than 12) and continues infinitely.

Answer:

D. All natural numbers greater than 12.
