a. x + y = y + x
b. xy = yx
5. Distributivity (If there are two of the same...make it one and move it outside of
the parentheses):
NOTE: gotta be natural numbers....integers are cool.
a. xy + xz = x(y+z)
6. Cancellation (if x plus something equals y plus the same something, x equals y.
Same for multiplication)
NOTE: gotta be natural numbers....integers are cool...just NO ZERO!
a. x + z = y + z.....then x = y
b. xz = yz....x= y
Dividing thing:
...integers are cool...
a divides b if there's a "k" such that b =ak.
eg: 9 and 90
9 divides 90 because there's a number 10 such that 90 = 9*10
PRIME: Bigger than 1 and only 1 and itself divide into it.
COMPOSITE: ain't 1 nor is it a prime
If a natural number is bigger than 1 it is a prime or product of primes.
EVEN INTEGER: Iff there's a k such that 2k = the number.
ODD Integer: Iff there's a 'j' such that 2j + 1 = the number.
REAL
AND RATIONAL
INVERSE" eg
there's a 'y' such that xy = 1
Are IRRATIONAL
FUNCTIONS: (mapping)
Unique element of b is assigned to each element in a. Can be numbers, functions,
or vaginas.
"f is a function from A to B":
"f maps A to B"
If a A, then f(a) = b.
The elements of a are called arguments or inputs of the function.
If f(a)=b then a is the "pre-image" of b.....and b is the "image of a".
f(pre-image)=image
Preimage really means the number that gets put through the f wringer.
Image is what the preimage becomes after it has been put through the wringer.
SINGLE VALUED PROPERTY: A can only have UNIQUE images of elements, and
an image in A exists in B!
DOMAINS AND CODOMAINS:
SECTION 1.2
"If....then"
CONVERSE
CONTRAPOSITIVE
BICONDITIONAL
THIS MEANS THAT FOR THE TRUTH TABLES OF P AND Q .... P<=>Q is only
true for TWO VALUES THAT A THE SAME .... LIKE AN XNOR GATE!!!
