Let \(f\) be a real-valued function of a real varaible. Show that if \(f\) is increasing on a set \(S\) and if \(M\) is any negative real number, then \(M f\) is decreasing on \(S\).
Show that if a function \(f: \mathbf{R} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}\) is increasing. then \(f\) is one-to-one.
. The congruence modulo 3 relation, \(T\), is defined from \(\mathbf{Z}\) to \(\mathbf{Z}\) as follows: For all integers \(m\) and \(n, m T n \Leftrightarrow 3 \mid(m-n)\). a. Is \(10 T\) l? Is \(1 T\) lo? Is \((2,2) \in T\) ? Is \((8,1) \in T\) ? b. List five integers \(n\) such that \(n T 0\). c. List five integers \(n\) such that \(n T 1\). d. List five integers \(n\) such that \(n T 2\). \(\boldsymbol{H}\) e. Make and prove a conjecture about which integers are related by \(T\) to 0 , which integers are related by \(T\) to 1 , and which integers are related by \(T\) to 2 .
Exercises \(36-39\) refer to the following algorithm to compute the value of a real polynomial. Algorithm 9.3.3 Term-by-Term Polynomial Evaluation [This algorithm computes the value of the real polynomial \(a[n] x^{n}+a[n-1] x^{n-1}+\cdots+a[2] x^{2}+a[1] x+a[0]\) by computing each term separately, starting with \(a[0]\), and adding it on to an accumulating sum.] Input: \(n\) [a nonnegative integer], \(a[0], a[1], a[2], \ldots, a[n]\) [an array of real numbers], \(x[\) a real number \(]\) Algorithm Body: polyval := \(a[0]\) for \(i:=1\) to \(n\) term : = \(a[i]\) for \(j:=1\) to \(i\) term \(:=\) term \(\cdot x\) next \(j\) polyval := polyval + term next \(i\) [At this point polyval \(=a[n] x^{n}+a[n-1] x^{n-1}\) \(\left.+\cdots+a[2] x^{2}+a[1] x+a[0] .\right]\) Output: polyval [a real number] Let \(s_{n}=\) the number of additions and multiplications that must be performed when Algorithm \(9.3 .3\) is executed for a polynomial of degree \(n\). Express \(s_{n}\) as a function of \(n\).
In 4-9, express each statement using \(\Omega-, O-\), or \(\Theta\)-notation. \(\left|5 x^{8}-9 x^{7}+2 x^{5}+3 x-1\right| \leq 6\left|x^{8}\right|\) for all real numbers \(x>3\). (Use \(O\)-notation.)
