Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As the statement is ‘‘if and only if’’ we need to prove two implications

  1. f : X \rightarrow Y is surjective implies there exists a function h : Y \rightarrow X such that  f\circ h = 1_Y.
  2. If there exists a function h : Y \rightarrow X such that  f\circ h = 1_Y, then f : X \rightarrow Y is surjective

Let us start by the first implication.

Our hypothesis is that the function f : X \rightarrow Y is surjective. From this we know that for every y\in Y there exist, at least, one x\in X such that y=f(x).

Now, define the sets X_y = \{x\in X: y=f(x)\}. Notice that the set X_y is the pre-image of the element y. Also, from the fact that f is a function we deduce that X_{y_1}\cap X_{y_2}=\emptyset, and because  f the sets X_y are no empty.

From each set X_y  choose only one element x_y, and notice that f(x_y)=y.

So, we can define the function h:Y\rightarrow X as h(y)=x_y. It is no difficult to conclude that f\circ h(y) = f(x_y)=y. With this we have that f\circ h=1_Y, and the prove is complete.

Now, let us prove the second implication.

We have that there exists a function  h:Y\rightarrow X  such that f\circ h=1_Y.

Take an element y\in Y, then f\circ h(y)=y. Now, write x=h(y) and notice that x\in X. Also, with this we have that f(x)=y.

So, for every element y\in Y we have found that an element x\in X (recall that x=h(y)) such that y=f(x), which is equivalent to the fact that f is surjective. Therefore, the prove is complete.

What is (6x4 - 7x3 - 153x2 + 175x + 75) divided by (x + 5)?
Vinil7 [7]
We can do this by using either long division or synthetic. I will use synthetic because it saves time. 6x^3-37x^2+32^x+15.

Which gases are released into the atmosphere when volcanoes erupt?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The volcanoes are formed adjacent to a convergent plate boundary, in which the denser plate subducts under a less denser plate. These subducting plates undergoes partial melting at greater depths and the magma is forced to rise up towards the over-riding plate, resulting in the formation of the volcano and chains of volcanoes.

These volcanoes when undergoes eruptions, releases various types of gases. They are such as the Carbon dioxide (CO₂), Water vapor (H₂O), Sulfur dioxide (SO₂), Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and Carbon monoxide (CO).

These gases are harmful to the atmosphere as it creases the green house effect thereby increasing the earth's global temperature.
