The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the set \( A = \{ x : x \in \mathbb{N} \text{ and } 3 < x < 4 \} \) is an empty set, we will analyze the conditions defined for the elements of the set. ### Step 1: Understand the definition of the set The set \( A \) is defined as the collection of all \( x \) such that \( x \) is a natural number and \( x \) is greater than 3 but less than 4. ### Step 2: Identify the natural numbers The natural numbers \( \mathbb{N} \) are defined as the set of positive integers: \( \{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, \ldots \} \). ### Step 3: Analyze the range given in the set We need to find natural numbers \( x \) that satisfy the condition \( 3 < x < 4 \). ### Step 4: Check for natural numbers in the range - The only natural number greater than 3 is 4. - However, 4 is not less than 4. Therefore, there are no natural numbers that satisfy the condition \( 3 < x < 4 \). ### Step 5: Conclusion Since there are no natural numbers that meet the criteria specified in the set \( A \), we conclude that \( A \) is an empty set. Thus, we can write: \[ A = \emptyset \] ### Final Answer The set \( A \) is an empty set because there are no natural numbers that satisfy the condition \( 3 < x < 4 \). ---
