#9. For each statement, state whether the statement is
true or false. If false, explain; provide a counterexample
as appropriate or a careful explanation. (If true, no
explanation expected)

(b) x in R, x+23 ≥x3+8.
(c) n in N, 4n + 1 is prime.
(d) x, y in R, if |x|
< |y|, then x2 < xy.
(e) m in N such that n in
N, m ≤ n.
(f) n in N, x in

#10. Write the converse, the inverse, and the contrapositive
of the statement
If
Lisa is texting, then Lisa is not driving.
Definitions: A real number r is rational iff
integers m and n such that r =
m/n and n is nonzero.
The set of all rational numbers is denoted by the symbol Q (for quotient).
A real number s is irrational iff s is not
rational.
#11. Consider the following statement:
For all real
numbers x and y, if the product xy is
irrational, then x is irrational and y is
irrational.
(a) Carefully state the contrapositive.
(b) Is the contrapositive true or false?
Explain.
I can only answer 1 question at a time and that too only first four subparts.
Please do rate me and mention doubts in the comments section.

7. (16 marks) True-false questions: in each case decide if the statement is true or false; if true, present a short argument supporting it, and if it is false present a counterexample. a) The product of a rational and an irrational number is always irrational. b) If x and y are non-constructible then so is x + y. c) If x is constructible then so is 1. d) The set of non-constructibles is a subfield of R. e) The set...
Let x,y ∈ R. Which of the following statements are true. If the statement is true prove it, if not give a counterexample a) If x is rational and y is irrational, then x y is irrational. b) If x and y are both irrational then x + y is irrational. c) Ifx and y are both irrational then ry is irrational d) Ifx is rational and y is irrational then ry is irrational.
Problem 1: Determine whether the statement is true or false. If the statement is true, then prove it. Otherwise, provide a counterexample. (a) If a continuous function f:R +R is bounded, then f'(2) exists for all x. (b) Suppose f.g are two functions on an interval (a, b). If both f + g and f - g are differentiable on (a, b), then both f and g are differentiable on (a,b). Problem 2: Define functions f,g: RR by: x sin(-),...
Write true or false for each of the following statements. Provide justification for each answer—if true, give a brief explanation. If false, either provide a counterexample or contrast the statement with a similar true statement, explaining why the two cases differ. cos(x) with initial conditions (5 points) The linear second-order equation 2xy" + 3y' + xy = y(0) = 2, y'(0) = -1 has a unique solution on the real line.
1.)Which of the expressions is equivalent to the following statement: The sum of two even numbers is even. a.) If x is even or y is even, then x + y b.) If x is even or y is even, then x + y is even c.) If x is even and y is even, then x + y is not even. d.) If x is even and y is even, then x + y is even 2.) Find a...
Indicate whether the following statement is true or false) In order to receive full credit, you must provide justification of your answer on the separate sheet you submit(e.g., a proof of a true statement, or a counterexample to a false statement). If f is a continuous function on a smooth curve C' in the xy-plane and Sc f(x, y) ds > 0, then f(x,y) > 0 for all points (x, y) in C. True False
