b. an integer n; n is divided by 7 the remainder is 3
2. a. a positive real number; smaller than r
b. positive real number r; there is a positive real number s
Fill in the blanks to rewrite the following statement with variables:
3. There is an integer whose reciprocal is also an integer.
4. a. have three sides
b. has three sides
c. has three sides
d. is a triangle; has three sides
e. T has three sides
5. a. have additive inverses
b. an additive inverse
c. y is an additive inverse for x
6. a. less than or equal to every positive integer
b. positive integer m; less than or equal to every positive integer
c. less than or equal to n
7. (a) The set of all integers n such that n is a factor of 9.
Or: The set of all elements n in Z such that n is a factor of 9.
Or: The set of all elements n in the set of all integers such that n is a factor of 9.
(b) {1, 3, 9}
8. (a) No
(b) Yes
(c) Yes
(d) No
9. a. {(a, u),(a, v),(b, u),(b, v),(c, u),(c, v)}
b. {(u, a),(v, a),(u, b),(v, b),(u, c),(v, c)}
10. a. Yes; No; No; Yes
b. {(3, 15),(3, 18),(5, 15)}
c. domain is {3, 5, 7}; co-domain is {15, 16, 17, 18}.
d. Draw an arrow diagram for R.
e. No: R fails both conditions for being a function from A to B. (1) Elements 5 and 7 in A are not
related to any elements in B, and (2) there is an element in A, namely 3, that is related to two different
elements in B, namely 15 and 18.
