Question 495875: It was stated that a real function is a function whose domain
and codomain are subsets of the real numbers R. Most of the functions
used in calculus are real functions. Quite often, a real function is given by a
formula or a graph with no specific reference to the domain or the codomain.
In these cases, the usual convention is to assume that the domain of the real
function f is the set of all real numbers x for which f(x) is a real number and that the codomain is R. For example, if we define the (real) function f
by,
f(x)=x/x-2,
we would be assuming that the domain is the set of all real numbers that are not equal to 2.
Determine the domain and range of each of he following real functions.
a.)The function k defined by k(x)=the square root x-3
b.)The function F defined by F(x)=In(2x-1)
c.)The function f defined by f(x)=3 sin(2x)
d.)The function g defined by g(x)=4/x^2 - 4

Question 500690: One of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics is a conjecture
made by Christian Goldbach in a letter to Leonhard Euler in 1742. The
conjecture made in this letter is now known as Goldbach’s Conjecture. The
conjecture is as follows:
Every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two
(not necessarily distinct) prime numbers.
Currently, it is not known if this conjecture is true or false, although most
mathematicians believe it to be true.
(a) Describe one way to prove that Goldbach’s Conjecture is false.
(b) Prove the following:
If there exists an odd integer greater than 5 that is not the sum of
three prime numbers, then Goldbach’s Conjecture is false.

Question 500817: 1. Whenever we encounter a new proposition, it is a good idea to explore the
proposition by looking at specific examples. For example, let
a =20, b = 12, and t = 4. In this case, t given a and t given b. In each of
the following cases, determine the value of (ax + by) and determine if t
divides (ax + by).
(a) x = 1; y = 1 a. yes
(b) x = 1; y = -1 b. yes
(c) x = 2; y = 2 c. yes
(d) x = 2; y= -3 d. yes
(e) x = -2; y = 3 e. yes
(f) x = -2; y = -5 f. yes
2. Repeat Part (1) with a = 21, b = -6, and t =3.
a. yes d. yes
b. yes e. yes
c. yes f. yes
3. We started the forward-backward process for the proof of Proposition 4.15
following the discussion of this proposition. Complete the following proof
of Proposition 4.15.
Proposition 4.15. Let a, b, and t be integers with t ≠ 0. If t divides a and t
divides b, then for all integers x and y, t divides ax + by.
Proof. Let a, b, and t be integers with t ≠ 0, and assume that t divides a and
t divides b. We will prove that for all integers x and y, t divides (ax + by).
So let x is an element of Z and let y is an element of Z. Since t divides a, there exists an integer m such that ….

Question 606645: Given the sets:
vowels = {'a' ,'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'} and name = {'a', 'l', 'l, 'a', 'n'}
Which is FALSE?
- name ∪ vowels = {'a'}
- 'a' ∈ (vowels ∩ name)
- The cardinality of name = The cardinality of {'a', 'l', 'n' }
- The cardinality of vowels is equal to the cardinality of name.
I would think it was D because the cardinality of vowels would be 5 and the cardinality of name would be 3, due to having more than one of the same letter.

Question 606633: Given the sets:
vowels = {'a' ,'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'} and name = {'a', 'l', 'l, 'a', 'n'}
Which is FALSE?
- name ∪ vowels = {'a'}
- 'a' ∈ (vowels ∩ name)
- The cardinality of name = The cardinality of {'a', 'l', 'n' }
- The cardinality of vowels is equal to the cardinality of name
I would normally say it would be D in this case, as I think duplicate letters don't count such as name would be 3 and vowels would be 4.
