What’s the equation in slope-intercept form?

You can take any 2 points from the table and calculate the slope, as follows:
                     -2-(-4)        2
m = slope = ---------- = ------ = -1/5
                      -5 - 5       -10
The slope-intercept form is    y = mx + b.  You already know m (which is -1/5), and have several points from which to choose to obtain x and y.  Let's use the given point (-2, -1).

Then    -1 = (-1/5)(-2) + b, or   -1 = 2/5 + b.  Solve for b.

-5 = 2 + 5b,  so  5b = -7, and b = -7/5.

The desired equation is     y = (-1/5)x - 7/5.

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.
