Answer:

To remedy confusions like yours and to avoid the needless case analyses, I prefer to define X to be countable if there is a surjection from N to X.

This definition is equivalent to a few of the many definitions of countability, so we are not losing any generality.

It is a matter of convention whether we allow finite sets to be countable or not (though, amusingly, finite sets are the only ones whose elements you could ever finish counting).

So, if A and B be countable, let f:N→A and g:N→B be surjections. Then the two sequences (f(n):n⩾1)=(f(1),f(2),f(3),…) and (g(n):n⩾1)=(g(1),g(2),g(3),…) eventually cover all of A and B, respectively; we can interleave them to create a sequence that will surely cover A∪B:

(h(n):n⩾1):=(f(1),g(1),f(2),g(2),f(3),g(3),…).

An explicit formula for h is h(n)=f((n+1)/2) if n is odd, and h(n)=g(n/2) if n is even.

Hope it helps uh mate...✌

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A and B are two countable sets

We have to show that if A and B are countable then A\cup B is countable.

Countable means finite set or countably infinite.

Case 1: If A and B are two finite sets

Suppose A={1} and B={2}

A\cup B={1,2}=Finite=Countable

Hence, A\cup B is countable.

Case 2: If A finite and B is countably infinite

Suppose, A={1,2,3}

B=N={1,2,3,...}

Then, A\cup B={1,2,3,....}=N

Hence,A\cup B is countable.

Case 3:If A is countably infinite and B is finite set.

Suppose , A=Z={..,-2,-1,0,1,2,....}

B={-2,-3}

A\cup B=Z=Countable

Hence, A\cup B countable.

Case 4:If A and B are both countably infinite sets.

Suppose A=N and B=Z

Then,A\cup B=N\cup Z=Z

Hence,A\cup B is countable.

Therefore, if A and B are countable sets, then A\cup B is also countable.

Lorene plans to make several open-topped boxes in which to carry plants. She makes the boxes from rectangular sheets of cardboar
Katen [24]

Answer:

29 feet in length, 5 feet in width and 12 feet in height

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that for the volume of a quadrangular prism is:

V = l * w * h

Ie length times width times height

In this case, the height is determined by the squares that you put in each corner, taking into account that a square has all the same sides, the height is 12 inches. h = 12

they tell us that the length is 24 inches more than the width, that is, l = 24 + w

replacing we have:

1740 = (24 + w) * w * 12

1740 = 12 * w ^ 2 + 288 * w

12 * w ^ 2 + 288 * w - 1740 = 0

if we calculate the root, we have w = 5 or w = -29

only works when w = 5

Thus:

l = 24 + 5

l = 29

which means that the dimensions are:

29 feet in length, 5 feet in width and 12 feet in height

What is 15 tens - 1 gross ​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A gross is equal to 120 ones or ten dozen

what is 15 tens - 1 gross

we know that

15 tens means ----> That you are adding 10, 15 times or multiplying 10 by 15, which gives you

10(15)=150

1 gross means ---> That you are adding 10, 12 times or multiplying 10 by 12

which gives you

10(12)=120

so

The algebraic expression of 15 tens - 1 gross is equal to

150-120=30

Convert to word expression

3  tens

The elevation of Sports Authority Field in Denver, Colorado is 5280ft. If this is 275ft higher than seven times the elevation of
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The elevation of Lucas Oil Field is of 715 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elevation of Sports Authority Field:

Of 5280 ft.

Compared to Lucas Oil Field:

275ft than seven times the Lucas Oil Field elevation of x.

Equation:

275 + 7x = 5280

What is the elevation of Lucas Oil Field?

Solving the above equation:

7x = 5280 - 275

7x = 5005

x = \frac{5005}{7}

x = 715

The elevation of Lucas Oil Field is of 715 feet.
