Not a function. Since the domain Function. Since each

(Student Nico)repeats or point to element points to only 1
multiple elements in range so this element in the range.
is not a function

Function. Since each element point Not a function. Because the

to only 1 element in the co-domain domains (teachers, Mr. Cruz and
and shows on-to-one function. Ms. Dal) are paired up or point
to multiple elements in range so
this is not a function.
 II. Determine the truth value (TRUE or FALSE) of each of these statements if the domain
consists of all integers. State your reason.

1.) FALSE, because if we let x = 1 then it

would be (1)² > 1 which is false.
Therefore there exists of an integer
in the domain to make the
statement false.

2.) FALSE, because there is any consist

integer to make the statement
justify that y < y/2 -1.

3.) FALSE, because if we let integer 0 as the value of y, there is no 0² ≠ 0 so

the statement is false.

𝑥, 𝑦, (4𝑥 > 5𝑦) where 𝑥 < 𝑦. 4.) TRUE, because if we let x = -10, y= -9. Therefore, it becomes
4(-10) > 5(-9) which concludes -40> -45 wherein the given values of x < y .

𝑥, 𝑦, (𝑥𝑦 > 0) where 𝑥 = 𝑦. 5.) FALSE, because if we let x and y = 0 then it would be 0>0 which
is wrong/false since the given situation should be x = y. In that so, there exist integer that makes
the statement false.
