\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-3x+y=6&|\text{add 3x to both sides}\\5x+2y=23\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=3x+6\\5x+2y=23\end{array}\right\\\\\text{substitute}\ y=3x+6\ \text{to the second equation}\\\\5x+2(3x+6)=23\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\5x+(2)(3x)+(2)(6)=23\\\\5x+6x+12=23\qquad|\text{subtract 12 from both sides}\\\\11x=11\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 11}\\\\\boxed{x=1}\\\\\text{subtract the value of x to the first equation}\\\\y=3(1)+6\\\\y=3+6\\\\\boxed{y=9}

<h3>Answer: x = 1 and y = 9 → (1, 9).</h3>

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.
