Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
- The function is injective but nor surjective
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We see that:</u>
<u>For any x₁ and x₂ ∈ N, </u>
- f(x) = x₁³ = x₂³ ⇒ x₁ = x₂, both are natural numbers
It it confirmed one-to-one, hence it is injective
<u>Check the surjectivity:</u>
f(x) = y ∈ N
<u>Let y = 2, then:</u>
Since x is not natural, the function is not surjective
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = - 2x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 2 )
m =
=
= - 2 , then
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, 2 ) , then
2 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 4 = 6
y = - 2x + 6 ← equation of line
