The product zw in polar form is 252∠-4π/9 and in exponential form is [tex]252e^(^-^4^\pi^i^/^9^)[/tex].

To find the product zw, we can multiply the magnitudes and add the angles of the given complex numbers Z and W.

Given:

Z = 3cos(2π/9) + isin(2π/9)

W = 12cos(-9π/9) + isin(-9π/9)

First, let's find the product of the magnitudes:

|Z| = 3

|W| = 12

The magnitude of the product is the product of the magnitudes:

|zw| = |Z| * |W| = 3 * 12 = 36

Next, let's find the sum of the angles:

∠Z = 2π/9

∠W = -9π/9

The angle of the product is the sum of the angles:

∠zw = ∠Z + ∠W = 2π/9 - 9π/9 = -7π/9

Therefore, the product zw in polar form is 36∠(-7π/9) and in exponential form is [tex]36e^(^-^7^\pi^i^/^9^)[/tex].

There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a real difference in support among the candidates.

We have,

To test whether there is a significant difference in the number of people who support each of the four candidates for mayor, we can use the chi-square test of independence.

The null hypothesis (H0) is that there is no difference in support among the candidates, while the alternative hypothesis (H1) is that there is a difference.

Let's perform the chi-square test using the provided data:

Observed frequencies:

Jones: 600

Washington: 640

Thomas: 575

Jefferson: 635

Step 1: Set up hypotheses

H0: The number of people who support each candidate is the same.

H1: The number of people who support each candidate is different.

Step 2: Calculate the expected frequencies

To calculate the expected frequencies, we assume that the proportions of support are equal for all candidates. We can calculate the expected frequencies based on the total number of responses:

Total responses = 600 + 640 + 575 + 635 = 2450

Expected frequency for each candidate = Total responses / Number of candidates = 2450 / 4 = 612.5

Step 3: Calculate the chi-square test statistic

The chi-square test statistic can be calculated using the formula:

χ2 = Σ((Observed frequency - Expected frequency)² / Expected frequency)

Calculating the chi-square test statistic:

χ2 = ((600 - 612.5)²/ 612.5) + ((640 - 612.5)²/ 612.5) + ((575 - 612.5)² / 612.5) + ((635 - 612.5)² / 612.5)

≈ 5.429

Step 4: Determine the critical value and p-value

Using an alpha level of 0.05 and degrees of freedom:

(df) = number of categories - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3, we consult the chi-square critical value table.

The critical value for df = 3 and alpha = 0.05 is approximately 7.815.

Step 5: Make a decision

Since the calculated chi-square value (5.429) is less than the critical value (7.815), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

APA style reporting:

The chi-square test of independence revealed that the number of people who support each of the four candidates for mayor was not significantly different, χ2(3) = 5.429, p > .05.

Thus,

There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a real difference in support among the candidates.

The volume of the solid that results when the region bounded by y = √x, y = 0 and x = 64 is revolved about the line x = 64 is 256π cubic units.

The question is asking to find the volume of the solid that results when the region bounded by y = √x, y = 0 and x = 64 is revolved about the line x = 64.

The region bounded by y = √x, y = 0 and x = 64 is shown below:

Given that, the region is revolved about the line x = 64.

The line x = 64 is parallel to the y-axis, so we need to express the given functions in terms of y.

The region bounded by y = √x, y = 0 and x = 64 is the same as the region bounded by x = y², y = 0 and x = 64.

Therefore, we can express the region in terms of y as follows: x = 64 - y²y = 0y = √64 = 8

Now, we will use the shell method to find the volume of the solid.

The shell method involves integrating the surface area of a cylindrical shell that is parallel to the axis of revolution.

The radius of the cylindrical shell is y, and its height is (64 - y²).

Therefore, the surface area of the shell is:2πy(64 - y²)

The volume of the solid is the sum of the surface areas of all the cylindrical shells from y = 0 to y = 8:V = ∫₀⁸ 2πy(64 - y²) dyV = 2π ∫₀⁸ (64y - y³) dyV = 2π [32y² - ¼y⁴]₀⁸V = 2π [32(8)² - ¼(8)⁴]V = 256π cubic units.

Using the Improved Euler's Method with a step size of h = 1 on the interval [2, 4], the approximations for the initial value problem dy/dx = x² + 4y, y(2) = -1 are:

y₁ = -3.5

y₂ = -14

To approximate the solution to the initial value problem using the Improved Euler's Method (Heun's Method) with a step size of h = 1 on the interval [2, 4], we will compute the values of y at x = 2 and x = 3.

The Improved Euler's Method is given by the following formula:

y₍ₙ₊₁₎ = yₙ + (h/2) × [f(xₙ, yₙ) + f(x₍ₙ₊₁₎, yₙ + h × f(xₙ, yₙ))]

where y_n represents the approximation of y at x = x_n, h is the step size, f(x, y) is the given differential equation, and x_n represents the current x-value.

Step 1: Initialization

Given that y(2) = -1, we have the initial condition y_0 = -1.

Step 2: Compute y_1

For x = 2, we have x_0 = 2, y_0 = -1.

f(x_0, y_0) = x_0^2 + 4 × y_0 = 2^2 + 4 × (-1) = 2 - 4 = -2

Using the formula, we can calculate y_1:

y_1 = y_0 + (h/2) × [f(x_0, y_0) + f(x_1, y_0 + h × f(x_0, y_0))]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-2 + f(3, -1 + 1 × (-2))]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-2 + (3^2 + 4 × (-1 + 1 × (-2)))]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-2 + (9 + 4 × (-1 - 2))]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-2 + (9 - 12)]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-2 - 3]

    = -1 + (1/2) × [-5]

    = -1 - (5/2)

    = -1 - 2.5

    = -3.5

Therefore, y_1 = -3.5.

Step 3: Compute y_2

For x = 3, we have x_1 = 3, y_1 = -3.5.

f(x_1, y_1) = x_1^2 + 4 × y_1 = 3^2 + 4 × (-3.5) = 9 - 14 = -5

Using the formula, we can calculate y_2:

y_2 = y_1 + (h/2) × [f(x_1, y_1) + f(x_2, y_1 + h × f(x_1, y_1))]

    = -3.5 + (1/2) × [-5 + f(4, -3.5 + 1 × (-5))]

    = -3.5 + (1/2) × [-5 + (4^2 + 4 × (-3.5 + 1 × (-5)))]

    = -3.5 + (1/2) × [-5 + (16 + 4 × (-3.5 - 5))]

    = -3.5 + (1/2) × [-5 + (16 - 32)]

    = -3.5 + (1/2) × [-5 - 16]

The result is written in the form of a + bi as 1 + i.

To evaluate the expression -4-4i/4i and write the result in the form a + bi, first, we will multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by -i. Therefore, -4-4i/4i= -4/-4i - 4i/-4i= 1 + i. So, the expression -4-4i/4i evaluated is equal to 1 + i. Thus, the result is written in the form of a + bi as 1 + i.

To evaluate the expression -4 - 4i / 4i, we can start by simplifying the division of complex numbers. Dividing by 4i is equivalent to multiplying by its conjugate, which is -4i.

(-4 - 4i) / (4i) = (-4 - 4i) * (-4i) / (4i * -4i)

= (-4 * -4i - 4i * -4i) / (16i^2)

= (16i + 16i^2) / (-16)

The mass of the rod is 65/3 kilograms. To find the mass of the thin rod, we need to integrate the density function, p(x), over the interval [-3, 2].

The mass, denoted by m, can be calculated as the integral of p(x) with respect to x over the given interval. The density function is given as p(x) = x² + 2. To find the mass, we integrate this function over the interval [-3, 2]. Using the definite integral notation, the mass can be expressed as:

m = ∫[-3,2] (x² + 2) dx

To evaluate this integral, we can split it into two separate integrals: one for x² and another for the constant term 2.

m = ∫[-3,2] x² dx + ∫[-3,2] 2 dx

Integrating x² with respect to x gives (1/3)x³, and integrating the constant term 2 gives 2x.

m = (1/3)x³ + 2x | from -3 to 2

Now, we can substitute the upper and lower limits of integration into the expression and evaluate the integral:

m = [(1/3)(2)³ + 2(2)] - [(1/3)(-3)³ + 2(-3)]

Simplifying further:

m = (8/3 + 4) - (-27/3 - 6)

m = (8/3 + 12/3) - (-27/3 - 18/3)

To find the equation of the line that is tangent to the curve   we need to find the derivative of the function using the quotient rule and then use the point-slope form of a line to determine the equation.

Let's find the derivative of f(x) using the quotient rule: f'(x) = [(5 - 4x³)(2(5x) - (7)) - (5x² - 7x + 1)(-12x²)] / (5 - 4x³)². Simplifying the numerator:

f'(x) = [(10x(5 - 4x³) - 7(5 - 4x³)) + (12x²(5x² - 7x + 1))] / (5 - 4x³)²

= [50x - 40x⁴ - 35 + 28x³ + 60x⁴ - 84x³ + 12x⁴] / (5 - 4x³)²

= [22x⁴ - 56x³ + 50x - 35] / (5 - 4x³)².  Now, let's find the slope of the tangent line at the point (1, -1) by substituting x = 1 into f'(x): f'(1) = [22(1)⁴ - 56(1)³ + 50(1) - 35] / (5 - 4(1)³)² = [22 - 56 + 50 - 35] / (5 - 4)² = -19. So, the slope of the tangent line is -19.

Now, we can use the point-slope form of a line to determine the equation of the tangent line: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁). Plugging in the coordinates of the point (1, -1) and the slope -19: y - (-1) = -19(x - 1). y + 1 = -19x + 19. y = -19x + 18. Therefore, the equation of the line that is tangent to the curve f(x) = (5x² - 7x + 1)/(5 - 4x³) at the point (1, -1) is y = -19x + 18.

To evaluate the integral of u · dr on the circle C from point A to point B, we need to parameterize the curve and express the vector field u in terms of the parameter.

The equation of the circle C with radius r = 1 and center at the origin is given by:

x² + y² = 1

We can parameterize this circle using the parameter t as follows:

x = cos(t)

y = sin(t)

To evaluate the integral, we need to express the vector field u = (u, v) in terms of x and y, and then substitute the parameterized values of x and y.

Given u = (ex + 3x²y) and v = (e²y + x³ - 4y³), we can express u and v in terms of x and y as follows:

u = e^(cos(t)) + 3cos²(t)sin(t)

v = e^(2sin(t)) + cos³(t) - 4sin³(t)

Now, we need to calculate dr, which represents the differential length element along the curve C. Since we have parameterized the curve, we can express dr as follows:

dr = (dx, dy) = (-sin(t)dt, cos(t)dt)

Next, we can substitute the parameterized values of x, y, u, v, dx, and dy into the integral:

∫(u · dr) = ∫(u dx + v dy)

= ∫[(e^(cos(t)) + 3cos²(t)sin(t))(-sin(t)dt) + (e^(2sin(t)) + cos³(t) - 4sin³(t))(cos(t)dt)]

Simplifying and combining like terms:

∫(u · dr) = ∫[(-e^(cos(t))sin(t) - 3cos²(t)sin²(t) + e^(2sin(t))cos(t) + cos³(t)cos(t) - 4sin³(t)cos(t))dt]

Integrating with respect to t from A to B:

∫(u · dr) = ∫[(-e^(cos(t))sin(t) - 3cos²(t)sin²(t) + e^(2sin(t))cos(t) + cos⁴(t) - 4sin³(t)cos(t))]dt, with limits from 0 to π/2

The respective probabilities are given as a) 0.4404, b) 0.8962, c) 0.0885.

a) The stochastic variable X is the proportion of correct answers on the math test for a random engineering student, which is normally distributed with expectation value µ = 57.9% and standard deviation σ = 14.0%. We have to find the probability that a randomly selected student has over 60% correct on the math test, i.e., P(X > 60).

x = 60.z = (x - µ) / σz = (60 - 57.9) / 14z = 0.15

Using a standard normal distribution table, we can find that the area under the curve to the right of z = 0.15 is 0.5596.Therefore, P(X > 60) = 1 - P(X ≤ 60) = 1 - 0.5596 = 0.4404.

b) We are considering 81 students from the same cohort. The probability that any one student has over 60% correct on the math test is P(X > 60) = 0.4404 (from part a). We need to find the probability that at least 30 students get over 60% correct on the math test. Since the students' results are independent, we can use the binomial distribution to calculate this probability.

Let X be the number of students who get over 60% correct on the math test out of 81 students. We want to find P(X ≥ 30).Using the binomial distribution formula:

P(X = k) = nCk * pk * (1 - p)n-k where n = 81, p = 0.4404P(X ≥ 30) = P(X = 30) + P(X = 31) + ... + P(X = 81)

This probability is difficult to calculate by hand, but we can use a normal approximation to the binomial distribution. Since n = 81 is large and np = 35.64 and n(1 - p) = 45.36 are both greater than 10, we can approximate the binomial distribution with a normal distribution with mean µ = np = 35.64 and standard deviation σ = sqrt(np(1-p)) = 4.47. The probability that at least 30 students get over 60% correct on the math test is:

P(X ≥ 30) = P(Z ≥ (30 - µ) / σ) = P(Z ≥ (30 - 35.64) / 4.47) = P(Z ≥ -1.26) = 0.8962. Therefore, the probability that at least 30 of the 81 students get over 60% correct on the math test is 0.8962.

c) We have to find the probability that X¯ is above 60%. X¯ is the sample mean of the proportion of correct answers on the math test for 81 students.Let X1, X2, ..., X, 81 be the proportion of correct answers on the math test for each of the 81 students. Then X¯ = (X1 + X2 + ... + X81) / 81.Using the central limit theorem, we can approximate X¯ with a normal distribution with mean µ = 57.9% and standard deviation σ/√n = 14.0% / √81 = 1.55%.

We have to find P(X¯ > 60). Using the z-score formula, we can find the standard score for x = 60.z = (x - µ) / (σ/√n)z = (60 - 57.9) / 1.55z = 1.35Using a standard normal distribution table, we can find that the area under the curve to the right of z = 1.35 is 0.0885. Therefore, the probability that X¯ is above 60% is 0.0885.

Therefore, the respective probabilities are given as a) 0.4404, b) 0.8962, c) 0.0885.

When the amount of time spent on social media increases, GPAs tend to decrease. The reverse is also true: when the amount of time spent on social media decreases, GPAs tend to increase.

The correlation between GPA (grade point average) and social media usage has been investigated in a number of research. The findings indicate that students who use social media more have lower GPAs. This means that there is a negative correlation between the two variables. The negative correlation coefficient suggests that as the amount of time spent on social media increases, GPAs decrease. This relationship has been observed in multiple studies and is consistent across different age groups, genders, and regions. While some studies suggest that there may be other factors contributing to this relationship, such as lack of sleep, it is clear that social media use has a negative impact on academic performance.

In conclusion, if the relationship between GPAS (grade point averages) and students' time spent on social media is such that high GPAs are associated with students who report low amounts of time spent on social media, then the correlation is negative. This indicates that as the amount of time spent on social media increases, GPAs decrease. While other factors may contribute to this relationship, the evidence suggests that social media use has a negative impact on academic performance.

f is an isomorphism.  Then x13 = x23 which implies x23 x-13 = e. But G is a cyclic group of order 8, hence x can have only one of the orders 1, 2, 4 or 8. Also the only element in G of order 1 is the identity element e. Therefore, either x23 = x-13 = e or x23 = x-13 = x24 or x23 = x-13 = x28. If x23 = x-13 = e, then x3 = x-1, which implies that x2 = e, a contradiction. Hence x23 = x-13 = x24 or x23 = x-13 = x28. If x23 = x-13 = x24, then x7 = e,

Which implies that x is an element of order 7 in G, a contradiction. Hence x23 = x-13 = x28, which implies that x107 = e. Since x is of order 8, it follows that x = e. Therefore f is one-to-one.(b) Proof:Since G is a finite set and f is one-to-one, it follows that the cardinality of the image of f is equal to the cardinality of G. Hence f is onto.(c) Proof:We have proved that f is one-to-one and onto. Therefore, f is a bijection. Since f(xy) = (xy)3 = x3 y3 = f(x)f(y), it follows that f is a homomorphism.

Firm 1 and Firm 2 will produce the same quantity and charge the same price in this scenario.

To determine the price, quantity, and profit for Firm 1 and Firm 2, we need to analyze the market equilibrium. In a competitive market, the price and quantity are determined by the intersection of the market demand and the total supply.

Market Demand:

The market demand is given by the equation P = 100 - Q, where P represents the price and Q represents the total quantity demanded in the market.

Total Cost:

Both firms have identical total cost functions, which are not explicitly provided in the question. However, we can assume that the total cost function for each firm is given by TC = C + MC * Q, where TC represents the total cost, C represents the fixed cost, MC represents the marginal cost, and Q represents the quantity produced by the firm.

Given that the marginal cost is MC = 4 + Q, we can rewrite the total cost function as TC = C + (4 + Q) * Q.

Market Equilibrium:

To find the market equilibrium, we set the market demand equal to the total supply. In this case, since Firm 1 can charge any price that Firm 2 charges, both firms will produce the same quantity and charge the same price.

Market Demand: P = 100 - Q

Total Supply: QS = Q1 + Q2 (quantity produced by Firm 1 and Firm 2)

Setting the market demand equal to the total supply, we have:

100 - Q = Q1 + Q2

Since Firm 1 and Firm 2 have identical total cost functions, they will split the market equilibrium quantity equally. Therefore, Q1 = Q2 = Q/2.

Substituting Q1 = Q2 = Q/2 into the equation 100 - Q = Q1 + Q2, we get:

100 - Q = Q/2 + Q/2

100 - Q = Q

Solving this equation, we find Q = 50. Thus, both Firm 1 and Firm 2 will produce 50 units of output.

Price Calculation:

To calculate the price, we substitute the quantity (Q = 50) into the market demand equation:

P = 100 - Q

P = 100 - 50

P = 50

Therefore, both Firm 1 and Firm 2 will charge a price of 50.

Profit Calculation:

To calculate the profit for each firm, we subtract the total cost from the total revenue. The total revenue for each firm is given by the product of the price (P = 50) and the quantity (Q = 50).

Total Revenue (TR) = P * Q = 50 * 50 = 2500

The total cost function for each firm is TC = C + (4 + Q) * Q. Since the fixed cost (C) is not provided, we cannot determine the profit explicitly. However, we can compare the profit of Firm 1 and Firm 2 if their total costs are the same.

Since both firms have identical total cost functions, they will have the same profit when their costs are the same. If their costs differ, then the firm with lower costs will have higher profits.

Overall, both Firm 1 and Firm 2 will produce 50 units of output, charge a price of 50, and their profits will depend on their total costs, which are not explicitly provided in the question.

For F(s) = 316, the inverse Laplace transform is f(t) = 316. For F(s) = 21, the inverse Laplace transform is also f(t) = 21.

Laplace transform theory, the Laplace transform is a mathematical operation that transforms a function of time into a function of complex frequency.

The inverse Laplace transform, on the other hand, is the process of finding the original function from its Laplace transform.

In the given question, we are asked to find the inverse Laplace transform of two functions: F(s) = 316 and F(s) = 21.

For the first function, F(s) = 316, we can directly apply the property of the Laplace transform that states the transform of a constant function is the constant itself.

Therefore, the inverse Laplace transform of F(s) = 316 is f(t) = 316.

Similarly, for the second function, F(s) = 21, the inverse Laplace transform is also a constant function. In this case, f(t) = 21.

Both solutions follow directly from the properties of the Laplace transform, without the need for further calculations or complex techniques.

The inverse Laplace transform of a constant function is always equal to the constant value itself.

It's important to note that these solutions are specific to the given functions and their Laplace transforms.

In more complex cases, involving functions with variable coefficients or non-constant terms, the inverse Laplace transform may require additional calculations and techniques such as partial fraction decomposition or table look-up.

(a) To solve the differential equation 2xyy' - 4x² = 3y², we can rearrange the equation as follows:

2xyy' - 3y² = 4x².

Next, we can divide both sides by y²:

2xy'/y - 3 = 4x²/y².

Letting u = y², we have:

2x(du/dx) - 3 = 4x²/u.

Rearranging this equation, we get:

2x(du/dx) = 4x²/u + 3.

Dividing through by 2x, we have:

du/dx = (4x/u) + 3/(2x).

This equation can be separated:

u du = (4x/u) dx + (3/(2x)) dx.

Integrating both sides, we get:

(u²/2) = 4ln|x| + (3/2)ln|x| + C,

where C is the constant of integration.

Finally, substituting back u = y², we have:

(y²/2) = (7/2)ln|x| + C.

This is the general solution to the differential equation.

(b) To solve the differential equation (y³ + 4e^x y) dx + (2e^x + 3y²) dy = 0, we can rearrange it as:

(y³ + 4e^x y) dx + (2e^x + 3y²) dy = 0.

To solve this, we can use the method of exact differential equations. Checking for exactness, we find that the equation is exact since the mixed partial derivatives are equal: ∂(y³ + 4e^x y)/∂y = 3y² and ∂(2e^x + 3y²)/∂x = 2e^x.

Now, we can find a potential function φ such that ∂φ/∂x = y³ + 4e^x y and ∂φ/∂y = 2e^x + 3y².

Integrating the first equation with respect to x, we get:

φ = ∫(y³ + 4e^x y) dx = xy³ + 4e^x yx + g(y),

where g(y) is an arbitrary function of y.

Taking the derivative of φ with respect to y, we have:

∂φ/∂y = 2e^x + 3y² + g'(y).

Comparing this with ∂φ/∂y = 2e^x + 3y², we find that g'(y) = 0, which implies g(y) = C, where C is a constant.

Therefore, the potential function φ is given by:

φ = xy³ + 4e^x yx + C.

This is the general solution to the given differential equation.

(c) To solve the differential equation y' + y tan(x) + sin(x) = 0 with the initial condition y(0) = π, we can use an integrating factor method.

First, we rewrite the equation in the standard form:

dy/dx + y tan(x) = -sin(x).

The integrating factor is given by:

μ(x) = e^(∫ tan(x) dx) = e^ln|sec(x)| = sec(x).

Multiplying the entire equation by the integrating factor, we have:

sec(x) dy/dx + y sec(x) tan(x) = -sin(x) sec(x).

The vectors v2 and v3 are expected to lie on the plane that is perpendicular to the vector v1 and so, it follows that the subspace of:

W={[xyz]∈R3|[xyz]⋅[2/32/31/3]=0} can be determined.

In the subspace of

W={[xyz]∈R3|[xyz]⋅[2/32/31/3]=0}

where vectors v2 and v3 are expected to lie, the dot product is zero, meaning that v2 and v3 are perpendicular to the vector [2,3,1]. We know that the vector [2,3,1] lies on the plane perpendicular to the subspace of W. Thus, the vector [2,3,1] is the normal vector of the plane.

To find the equation of the plane, we use the general equation given as:[ax + by + cz = d]

Where (a, b, c) represents the normal vector and the point (x, y, z) represents any point on the plane.

In order to estimate the mean number of years of formal education for adults in a large urban community, a sociologist took a random sample of 25 adults. The sample mean was found to be 11.7 years, with a standard deviation of 4.5 years. Using this information, a 85% confidence interval for the population mean number of years of formal education needs to be calculated.

To construct a confidence interval, we can use the formula:

Confidence Interval = sample mean ± (critical value * standard error)

First, we need to determine the critical value associated with an 85% confidence level. Since the sample size is small (25), we need to use a t-distribution. For an 85% confidence level with 24 degrees of freedom (25 - 1), the critical value is approximately 1.711.

Next, we calculate the standard error by dividing the sample standard deviation (4.5 years) by the square root of the sample size (√25).

Standard Error = 4.5 / √25 = 0.9 years

Finally, we can construct the confidence interval:

Confidence Interval = 11.7 ± (1.711 * 0.9)

The lower bound of the confidence interval is 11.7 - (1.711 * 0.9) = 10.36 years, and the upper bound is 11.7 + (1.711 * 0.9) = 13.04 years.

Therefore, the 85% confidence interval for the population mean number of years of formal education is (10.36 years, 13.04 years).

The value of the cardinality of the set is 25.

`A = {a € Z+| a = [x], x = B}` and `B = [−2, 2]`.

Then we need to find the cardinality of the set `A × B`.

Let's begin by finding the cardinality of the set `A`.A is defined as follows:

`A = {a € Z+| a = [x], x = B}`

So `A` is the set of positive integers `a` such that `a = [x]` where `x` is any number in `B`.`B = [−2, 2]` is an interval containing five numbers: `-2`, `-1`, `0`, `1`, and `2`.

To find the cardinality of `A`, we need to determine the number of positive integers that can be expressed as greatest integers of numbers in `B`.

For example:`[−2] = −2``[−1.5] = −2``[−1.0001] = −2``[−1] = −1``[−0.9999] = −1``[0] = 0``[0.0001] = 0``[0.9999] = 0``[1] = 1``[1.0001] = 1``[1.5] = 1``[2] = 2`

Thus, we can see that the set `A` is `{−2, −1, 0, 1, 2}`.

Since `B` has five elements and `A` also has five elements, the cardinality of `A × B` is `5 × 5 = 25`.

Therefore, the answer is 25.
