(a) Define F: z - Z by the rule F(n) = 2 - 3n, for each integer n. (i) Is F one-to-one? Suppose n, and n, are any integers, such that F(n,) = F(n,). Substituting from the definition of F gives that 2 - 3n, = Solving this equation for n, and simplifying the result gives that n, = Therefore, Fis ---Select--- v. (ii) Show that Fis not onto. Counterexample: Let m = For this value of m, the only number n with the property that F(n) = m is not an integer. Thus, Fis not onto.

Question

Transcribed Image Text:(a) Define F: Z → Z by the rule F(n) = 2 – 3n, for each integer n.
(i)
Is F one-to-one?
Suppose
n1
and
n2
3n1
are any integers, such that F(n,) = F(n,). Substituting from the definition of F gives that 2 -
Solving this equation for n, and simplifying the result
gives that n,
Therefore, F is ---Select---
(ii) Show that F is not onto.
Counterexample:
Let m =
For this value of m, the only number n with the property that F(n)
= m is not an integer. Thus, F is not onto.
