We are asked to list the elements of the following sets: (a) {$x: x$ is an integer greater than $-2$ but less than $9$}. (b) {$x: x$ is an integer} $\cap$ {$0, \sqrt{3}, \pi, 2i$}. (c) {$x^2 + 1: x \in A$} where $A = \{-2, -1, 0, 1, 2\}$. (d) {$\sqrt{x + 2}: x \in B$} where $B = \{-3, -4, 0, 1, 2\}$.

1. Problem Description
We are asked to list the elements of the following sets:
(a) { is an integer greater than but less than }.
(b) { is an integer} {}.
(c) {} where .
(d) {} where .
2. Solution Steps
(a) The integers greater than but less than are .
(b) The set { is an integer} is the set of all integers. We are looking for the intersection of this set with the set {}.
The only integer in the set {} is . and are irrational numbers and is an imaginary number. Therefore, the intersection is {}.
(c) We have . We need to find the set {}. We compute for each in .
If , .
If , .
If , .
If , .
If , .
Therefore, the set is {} which is equal to {}.
(d) We have . We need to find the set {}. We compute for each in .
If , .
If , .
If , .
If , .
If , .
Therefore, the set is {}.
3. Final Answer
(a) {}
(b) {}
(c) {}
(d) {}
