If \(P = {x : -2 < x < 5}\) and \(Q = {x : -5 < x < 2}\) are subsets of \(\mu = {x : -5 \leq x \leq 5}\), where x is a real number, find \((P \cup Q)\).
Express \(\frac{8 - 3\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{2}}\) in the form \(p\sqrt{3} + q\sqrt{2}\).
An operation * is defined on the set, R, of real numbers by \(p * q = p + q + 2pq\). If the identity element is 0, find the value of p for which the operation has no inverse.
Consider the statements:
p : Musa is short
q : Musa is brilliant
Which of the following represents the statement "Musa is short but not brilliant"?
If \(f(x) = \frac{4}{x} - 1, x \neq 0\), find \(f^{-1}(7)\).
