What does it mean for a set to be "closed"?(1 point) Responses Members of a closed set cannot be added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided. Members of a closed set cannot be added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided. The set has a finite number of members, as opposed to being infinitely large. The set has a finite number of members, as opposed to being infinitely large. An operation performed on members of that set will result in a member of the same set. An operation performed on members of that set will result in a member of the same set. An expression belonging to a closed set cannot be used to create an expression that is not of that set

The correct definition of a "closed set" in mathematical terms is:

An operation performed on members of that set will result in a member of the same set.

This means that if you take two elements from the set and apply a specific operation (like addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc.), the result of that operation will also be an element of the same set. For example, the set of integers is closed under addition because adding any two integers always results in another integer.
