#1. Prove that the following two statements are not logically equivalent. In your proof, completely justify your answer. (a) A real number is less than 1 only if its reciprocal is greater than 1. (b) Having a reciprocal greater than 1 is a sufficient condition for a real number to be less than 1.
For this problem, let's say that a pair of real numbers (a, b) is funky iff a and b are both irrational but a' is rational. Do any funky pairs exist? We'll show the answer is Yes in two different ways. (a) 5√2 Define r = √2 either rational or irrational. and show that a funky pair exists with a proof by cases: r is Hint: What is rv2? What funky pair (a, b) can you find in each case? (b) Let a = √2, and choose b so that a = 3, i.e., b = log2 (3) = log₂ (9). Use contradiction to prove that b is irrational. (This proves that (a, b) = (√2, log29) is funky!)
For each of the statement below, decide whether it is true or false, and prove your claim. (a) For all a, b € R, if a € Q \ {0} and b & Q then % ‡ Q. (b) For all x, y € R, if x is irrational and y is positive and irrational, then x + √y is irrational.
