(e) x < 7 and f (x) is in C.
(f ) (an) is convergent, but (an) is not monotone or not bounded.
(g) f is continuous and A is open, but f – 1(A) is not open.
V
5. Answers in book: (a) Antecedent: M is singular; consequent: M has a zero eigenvalue.
(b) Antecedent: linearity; consequent: continuity.
IA
(c) Antecedent: a sequence is Cauchy; consequent: it is bounded.
(d) Antecedent: y > 5; consequent: x < 3.

6. (a) Antecedent: it is Cauchy; consequent: a sequence is convergent.
(b) Antecedent: boundedness; consequent: convergence.
?_
(c) Antecedent: orthogonality; consequent: invertability.
(d) Antecedent: K is closed and bounded; consequent: K is compact.

7 and 8 are routine.
AP
9. Answers in book: (a) T ∧ T is T. (b) F ∨ T is T. (c) F ∨ F is F. (d) T ⇒ T is T. (e) F ⇒ F is T.
(f) T ⇒ F is F. (g) (T ∧ F) ⇒ T is T. (h) (T ∨ F) ⇒ F is F. (i) (T ∧ F) ⇒ F is T. (j) ~ (F ∨ T) is F.

10. (a) T ∧ F is F. (b) F ∨ F is F. (c) F ∨ T is T. (d) T ⇒ F is F. (e) F ⇒ F is T. (f) F ⇒ T is T.
(g) (F ∨ T) ⇒ F is F. (h) (T ⇒ F) ⇒ T is T. (i) (T ∧ T) ⇒ F is F. (j) ~ (F ∧ T) is T.
PR
11. Answers in book: (a) p ∧ ~ q; (b) ( p ∨ q) ∧ ~ ( p ∧ q); (c) ~ q ⇒ p; (d) ~ p ⇒ q; (e) p ⇔ ~ q.

12. (a) n ∧ ~ m; (b) ~ m ∧ ~ n or ~ (m ∨ n); (c) n ⇒ m; (d) m ⇒ ~ n; (e) ~ (m ∧ n).

13. (a) and (b) are routine. (c) p ∧ q.
OV
14. These truth tables are all straightforward. Note that the tables for (c) through (f ) have 8 rows because there are 3
letters and therefore 23 = 8 possible combinations of T and F.

AP
Additional answers: (c) You can use (ii) to prove (c) is false. (d) You can use (i) to prove (d) is false.

8. The best answer is (c).

9. Hints in book: The True/False part of the answers.
(a) False. For example, let x = 2 and y = 1. Then x > y.
PR
(b) True. For example, let x = 2 and y = 3. Then x ≤ y.
(c) True. Given any x, let y = x + 1. Then x ≤ y.
(d) False. Given any y, let x = y + 1. Then x > y.

10. (a) True. Given any x, let y = 0.
(b) False. Let x = 0. Then for all y we have xy = 0 ≠ 1.
OV
(c) False. Let y = 0. Then for all x we have xy = 0 ≠ 1.
(d) True. Given any x, let y = 1. Then xy = x.

11. Hints in book: The True/False part of the answers.
(a) True. Let x = 0. Then given any y, let z = y. (A similar argument works for any x.)
(b) False. Given any x and any y, let z = x + y + 1.

ED
(d) False. Let x = 0 and y = 1. (It is a true statement for x ≠ 0.)
(e) True. Let x ≤ 0.
(f ) True. Take z ≤ y. This makes “z > y ” false so that the implication is true. Or, choose z > x + y.

12. (a) True. Given x and y, let z = x + y.
(b) False. Let x = 0. Then given any y, let z = y + 1.
??
(c) True. Let x = 1. Then given any y, let z = y. (Any x ≠ 0 will work.)
(d) False. Let x = 1 and y = 0. (Any x ≠ 0 will work.)
(e) False. Let x = 2. Given any y, let z = y + 1. Then “z > y ” is true, but “z > x + y ” is false.
(f ) True. Given any x and y, either choose z > x + y or z ≤ y.
