    Create two sets using set-builder notation.
    Use the above information to create your sets.

    "the set of all k's that are a member of the Integers, such that k is greater than 5"
    In other words all integers greater than 5.
    using set-builder notation this could also be written {6, 7, 8, ... }

    You forgot 9 as an element in your set.

    I didn't forgot, I just choose to write {6, 7, 8, ... } and behind 8 are .... which means next is 9, then 10 and so on

    Greater than 5 means endless numbers greater than 5 as elements. I get it.
