answer all questions, all steps should be show up clearly and have explanation
Solution by Steps
Question 1:(a)
step 1
Let M M be the number of students taking mathematics, D D be the number of students taking data science, and x x be the number of students taking both courses
step 2
According to the problem, 16M=x \frac{1}{6}M = x and 19D=x \frac{1}{9}D = x . Thus, we can express M M and D D in terms of x x : M=6x M = 6x and D=9x D = 9x
step 3
The total number of students N N can be expressed as N=M+Dx=6x+9xx=14x N = M + D - x = 6x + 9x - x = 14x
step 4
The Venn diagram will have Mx=6xx=5x M - x = 6x - x = 5x in the mathematics only section, Dx=9xx=8x D - x = 9x - x = 8x in the data science only section, and x x in the intersection
(b)
step 5
To determine if more than one-third of the students are taking a mathematics course, we need to check if M > \frac{1}{3}N
step 6
Substituting the values, we have 6x > \frac{1}{3}(14x) . Simplifying gives 6x > \frac{14}{3}x
step 7
Multiplying through by 3 gives 18x > 14x , which simplifies to 4x > 0 . Since x > 0 , this is true
Answer
Yes, more than one-third of the students are taking a mathematics course.
Key Concept
Venn diagrams help visualize relationships between different sets.
Explanation
The Venn diagram clearly shows the distribution of students in mathematics and data science courses, confirming that more than one-third are enrolled in mathematics.
--- Question 2:
step 1
The given sequence is 1,5,13,29,61,125, 1, 5, 13, 29, 61, 125, \ldots . We need to find a pattern
step 2
The differences between consecutive terms are 4,8,16,32,64 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 , which are powers of 2: 22,23,24,25 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, 2^5
step 3
The recursive formula can be expressed as an=an1+2n+1 a_n = a_{n-1} + 2^{n+1} with a1=1 a_1 = 1
step 4
To find the explicit formula, observe that an=2n+11 a_n = 2^{n+1} - 1
Answer
Recursive: an=an1+2n+1 a_n = a_{n-1} + 2^{n+1} , Explicit: an=2n+11 a_n = 2^{n+1} - 1
Key Concept
Sequences can be defined recursively or explicitly.
Explanation
The recursive formula builds each term based on the previous one, while the explicit formula provides a direct calculation for any term in the sequence.
--- Question 3:(a)
step 1
The relation R R is defined by xRy xRy if and only if yxmod4 y \equiv x \mod 4
step 2
The elements of set A={12,18,22,24,38} A = \{12, 18, 22, 24, 38\} can be classified based on their equivalence classes modulo 4: 0,2,2,0,2 0, 2, 2, 0, 2
step 3
The ordered pairs for R R are R={(12,12),(12,24),(18,18),(22,22),(24,12),(24,24),(38,18),(38,22),(38,38)} R = \{(12, 12), (12, 24), (18, 18), (22, 22), (24, 12), (24, 24), (38, 18), (38, 22), (38, 38)\}
step 4
The matrix of R R can be constructed as follows: MR=[1amp;0amp;1amp;0amp;10amp;1amp;0amp;0amp;00amp;0amp;1amp;1amp;11amp;1amp;0amp;0amp;11amp;0amp;0amp;1amp;1] M_R = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}
(b)
step 5
The domain of R R is A A itself, {12,18,22,24,38} \{12, 18, 22, 24, 38\}
step 6
The range of R R is also A A since every element relates to itself
(c)
step 7
The in-degree of each vertex is the number of edges coming into it, and the out-degree is the number of edges going out. Each vertex has an in-degree and out-degree of 2
(d)
step 8
The relation R R is reflexive (every element relates to itself), symmetric (if xRy xRy , then yRx yRx ), and transitive (if xRy xRy and yRz yRz , then xRz xRz )
step 9
It is not antisymmetric or asymmetric since it has pairs (x,y) (x, y) and (y,x) (y, x)
(e)
step 10
A counterexample for antisymmetry is (12,24) (12, 24) and (24,12) (24, 12)
(f)
step 11
To find the matrix of RS1 R \circ S^{-1} , we first need to find S1 S^{-1} and then compute the composition
step 12
The matrix MS1 M_S^{-1} can be derived from MS M_S and then multiplied with MR M_R to find MRS1 M_{R \circ S^{-1}}
Answer
The relation R R is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. The matrix of RS1 R \circ S^{-1} can be computed as described.
Key Concept
Relations can be analyzed through properties like reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity.
Explanation
Understanding these properties helps classify relations and their behaviors in set theory.
Solution by Steps
Question 4:
step 1
To determine if the function f(x)=x22x+1f(x)=\left\lfloor\frac{x^{2}-2}{x+1}\right\rfloor is one-to-one, we will evaluate f(x)f(x) for each xA={2,3,4,5,6,7}x \in A=\{2,3,4,5,6,7\}
step 2
Calculating f(x)f(x) for each value: - f(2)=2222+1=23=0f(2) = \left\lfloor\frac{2^2-2}{2+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{2}{3}\right\rfloor = 0 - f(3)=3223+1=74=1f(3) = \left\lfloor\frac{3^2-2}{3+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{7}{4}\right\rfloor = 1 - f(4)=4224+1=145=2f(4) = \left\lfloor\frac{4^2-2}{4+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{14}{5}\right\rfloor = 2 - f(5)=5225+1=236=3f(5) = \left\lfloor\frac{5^2-2}{5+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{23}{6}\right\rfloor = 3 - f(6)=6226+1=347=4f(6) = \left\lfloor\frac{6^2-2}{6+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{34}{7}\right\rfloor = 4 - f(7)=7227+1=478=5f(7) = \left\lfloor\frac{7^2-2}{7+1}\right\rfloor = \left\lfloor\frac{47}{8}\right\rfloor = 5
step 3
The outputs are f(2)=0f(2)=0, f(3)=1f(3)=1, f(4)=2f(4)=2, f(5)=3f(5)=3, f(6)=4f(6)=4, f(7)=5f(7)=5. Since all outputs are unique, ff is one-to-one
step 4
To check if ff is onto, we need to see if every element in B={0,1,2,3,4,5,6}B=\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6\} is covered. The range of ff is {0,1,2,3,4,5}\{0,1,2,3,4,5\}, which does not include 6. Thus, ff is not onto
step 5
The function is defined for all xAx \in A, hence it is everywhere defined
Answer
ff is one-to-one, not onto, and everywhere defined.
Key Concept
A function is one-to-one if different inputs produce different outputs, onto if every element in the codomain is covered, and everywhere defined if it is defined for all inputs in the domain.
Explanation
In this case, ff produces unique outputs for each input, does not cover all elements in BB, and is defined for all inputs in AA.
--- Question 5:
step 1
To obtain the principal conjunctive normal form (PCNF) of the expression A[((pq)r)q](qr)A \equiv[((p \rightarrow q) \vee \sim r) \vee q] \rightarrow \sim(q \vee \sim r), we first rewrite the implication
step 2
The expression can be rewritten as [((pq)r)q](qr)\sim[((p \rightarrow q) \vee \sim r) \vee q] \vee \sim(q \vee \sim r)
step 3
Next, we simplify the expression: - pqp \rightarrow q is equivalent to pq\sim p \vee q. Thus, A[(pqr)q](qr)A \equiv \sim[(\sim p \vee q \vee \sim r) \vee q] \vee \sim(q \vee \sim r)
step 4
This simplifies to [pqr]qr\sim[\sim p \vee q \vee \sim r] \vee \sim q \wedge r
step 5
The final form can be expressed in conjunctive normal form as (pqr)(pr)(p \wedge \sim q \wedge r) \vee (p \wedge \sim r)
Answer
The principal conjunctive normal form of the expression is (pqr)(pr)(p \wedge \sim q \wedge r) \vee (p \wedge \sim r).
Key Concept
The principal conjunctive normal form (PCNF) is a standard way of expressing logical formulas as a conjunction of disjunctions.
Explanation
The process involves rewriting implications, simplifying the expression, and ensuring it is in the correct conjunctive form.
--- Question 6:
step 1
The expression (x)[P(x,y)(y)(Q(x,y)R(x))](\forall x)[\sim P(x, y) \wedge(\exists y)(\sim Q(x, y) \rightarrow R(x))] contains two quantifiers: x\forall x and y\exists y
step 2
The scope of x\forall x is the entire expression, while the scope of y\exists y is limited to the part (Q(x,y)R(x))(\sim Q(x, y) \rightarrow R(x))
step 3
To determine if the expression is a statement, we note that it contains free variables (specifically yy), which means it is not a statement
step 4
The reason it is not a statement is that the truth value cannot be determined without specific values for yy
Answer
The expression is not a statement because it contains free variables.
Key Concept
A statement is a declarative sentence that is either true or false, while expressions with free variables do not have a definitive truth value.
Explanation
The presence of free variables prevents the expression from being classified as a statement, as its truth value depends on the values assigned to those variables.
