<h3>Answer:   -5208</h3>

============================================

Work Shown:

term1 = 2

term2 = -10

term3 = 50

term4 = -250

term5 = 1250

term6 = -6250

Each new term is found by multiplying the previous term by -5

Add up the terms

2 + (-10) + 50 + (-250) + 1250 + (-6250) = -5208

-------------

A shortcut is to use a = 2, r = -5 and n = 6 in the formula below

Sn = a*(1-r^n)/(1-r)

S6 = 2*(1-(-5)^6)/(1-(-5))

S6 = 2*(1-15625)/(1+5)

S6 = 2*(-15624)/6

S6 = -31248/6

S6 = -5208

Give an example of a function f : N → N that is surjective but not injective. You must explain why your example is surjective an
Helen [10]

Answer:

Consider f: N → N defined by f(0)=0 and f(n)=n-1 for all n>0.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will prove that f is surjective. Let y∈N be any natural number. Define x as the number x=y+1. Then x∈N, and f(x)=x-1=(y+1)-1=y.  We conclude that f is surjective.

However, f is not injective. Take x1=0 and x2=1. Then x1≠x2 but f(x1)=0 and f(x2)=x2-1=1-1=0. We have shown that there are two natural numbers x1,x2 such that x1≠x2 but f(x1)=f(x2), that is, f is not injective.

Note:

If 0∉N in your definition of natural numbers, the same reasoning works with the function f: N → N defined by f(1)=1 and f(n)=n-1 for all n>1. The only difference is that you consider x1=1, x2=2 for the injectivity.
