Homework 1: Due Tuesday, 5 February
  • Section 1.1.3, #1 a,b; #2 a,c,f; #3 b
  • Section 1.2.3 #2,#4,#7
  • #7 from A list of revision questions

    (this is a total of 10 problems).

    If you need a hint for Section 1.2.3, number 7, here is one: let A be a set and suppose that the power set of A has cardinality less than or equal to |A|. Then there must be an injection f: P(A) ---> A. Let S be the subset of A consisting of those x in A such that the inverse image of {x} under f is nonempty, and x does not lie in this inverse image. Now let y=f(S) and carry on from here.

    TYPO! The heading should read "Problem set 6", not "5"!

    Hint for q6: it is intended that you solve this problem using the intermediate value theorem. Let f(t) be the distance between Brother Albert and A at time t on the first day and let g(t) be the distance between Brother Albert and A at time t on the second day. You should be able to solve the problem by applying the intermediate value theorem to a suitable combination of f and g.
