Can someone help me answer my homework??

1. List the elements of the given set that are:
(a)integers
(b)irrational numbers

{0,-10,50,22/7,0.538,square root of 7,1.233..., -1/3, 3 roots of 2}

2. Find the indicated set if:
A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7}
B={2,4,6,8}
C={7,8,9,10}

(a) A intersect B intersect C
(b) A intersect (B Union C)

3. Factor the following expression completely:

(a) x^-3/2 +2x^-1/2 + x^1/2
(b) 3x^2(4x-12)^2 + x^3(2)(4x-12)(4)
(c) x^3 + 2x^2 + x

please response to the questions ASAP tnx..

What do you understand by the terms "integers" and "irrational numbers"?

2. Find the indicated set if:
A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7}
B={2,4,6,8}
C={7,8,9,10}

(a) A intersect B intersect C
(b) A intersect (B Union C)
What elements do the sets $$A \cap B$$ and $$A \cup B$$ comprise of?

3. Factor the following expression completely:
(a) x^-3/2 +2x^-1/2 + x^1/2
(b) 3x^2(4x-12)^2 + x^3(2)(4x-12)(4)
(c) x^3 + 2x^2 + x
Simply find the common factors of the individual terms and factor them out.

You are going to make us go back and forth between your list of questions above and answers here? it would have been far simpler to copy your previous post and then add your answer to it!

22/7 is NOT an irrational number. Since it is a fraction it is by definition rational. By the way, I would interpret "3 roots of 2" as "3 times the square root of 2" but I suspect here you mean "cube root of 2".

2a)Associative
2b)Commutative
??? Problem 2 asked you to find 2 sets! You "answers" give properties of operations!

3a) null/empty set
3b) 2,4,6,7
Problem 3 asked you to factor expressions!

4a) (-2,1]
4b) (-1,infinite)

5.) 5-10t+t^3+-t^2-t^4

6.) (6y-7)(y+3)

7.) (4z-3)(4z-3)

There are no problems 4- 10 in your original post! How can we now tell you if these are correct answers if you tell us what the problems are?

By the way, I would interpret "3 roots of 2" as "3 times the square root of 2" but I suspect here you mean "cube root of 2".
Well either way we know it is irrational. But you are right 3 roots of 2 is an odd way of saying either option.
