Exercises
Consider the expression
x
+
y
(x+ y)
−
x
(y− x)
≡
f
(x,y)
.
Find
f
(− 1,2)
.
Show
−
(ab)
=
(− a)
b.
Show on the number line the effect of multiplying a number by
−
1
.
Add the fractions
--x- x2−1
+
x−1 x+1
.
Find a formula for
(x+ y)
2
,
(x + y)
3
,
and
(x + y)
4
.
Based on what you observe for these, give a formula for
(x+ y)
8
.
When is it true that
(x+ y)
n
=
x
n
+
y
n
?
Find the error in the following argument. Let
x
=
y
= 1
.
Then
xy
=
y
2
and so
xy
−
x
2
=
y
2
−
x
2
.
Therefore,
x
(y− x)
=
(y− x)
(y + x)
.
Dividing both sides by
(y− x)
yields
x
=
x
+
y.
Now substituting in what these variables equal yields 1 = 1 + 1
.
Find the error in the following argument.
√ ------ x2 + 1
=
x
+ 1 and so letting
x
= 2,
√ - 5
= 3
.
Therefore, 5 = 9
.
Find the error in the following. Let
x
= 1 and
y
= 2
.
Then
1 3
=
-1- x+y
=
1 x
+
1 y
= 1 +
1 2
=
3 2
.
Then cross multiplying, yields 2 = 9
.
Find the error in the following argument. Let
x
= 3 and
y
= 1. Then 1 = 3
−
2 = 3
−
(3 − 1)
=
x
−
y
(x − y)
=
(x − y)
(x− y)
= 2
2
= 4
.
Find the error in the following.
xy-+y- x = y + y = 2y.
Now let
x
= 2 and
y
= 2 to obtain
3 = 4
Show the rational numbers satisfy the field axioms. You may assume the associative, commutative, and distributive laws hold for the integers.
