Use any variable to rewrite the following sentences to mathematical statements

1. A number multiplied by 5 is equal to the same number increased by 12.

5x = x + 12
2. The cube root of a number is 6 less than the number itself.

3. A number whose square is smaller than the number itself

x2 < x
4. Twice the sum of two numbers is less the square of the sums of the two numbers
(x + y) 2 < (x + y)2
5. The square of the number is equal to the sum of the square of two other numbers
x2 = x2 + y2

Use the set-roster notation to indicate the elements in each of the following sets.
Use ellipsis (…) if necessary

6. {x ∈ ℤ | -4 < x < 6}
x = {-3, -2, -1, … , 5}
7. {a ∈ ℤ | 5 > a > - 8.5}
a = {-8, -7, -6, -5, … , 4}
8. {b ∈ ℤ | 4 ≤ b < 8}
b = {4, 5, 6 ,7}
9. {c ∈ ℤ+}
c = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 …}
10. {d ∈ ℤ| d > 1 or d < -1}
d = {2, 3, 4, 5, …}

List the ordered pairs for the following functions using the given domain. Show
complete solution

11. f(x) = x2 + 1, with x = {0, 2}

f(x) = x2 + 1 f(x) = x2 + 1
f(0) = (0)2 + 1 f(2) = (2)2 + 1
f(0) = 0 + 1 f(2) = 4 + 1
f(0) = 1 f(2) = 5
12. g(x) = , with x = {-5, 0, 1}
𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
g(x) = 𝐱 𝟏
g(x) = 𝒙 𝟏
g(x) = 𝒙 𝟏
𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
g(-5) = 𝟓 𝟏
g(0) = 𝟎 𝟏
g(1) = 𝟏 𝟏
𝟏 𝟏
g(-5) = - 𝟒 or -0.25 g(0) = 1 g(1) = 𝟐 or 0.5
13. h(x) = 2x + 1, with x = {2, 0, - 2}
h(x) = 2x + 1 h(x) = 2x + 1 h(x) = 2x + 1
h(2) = 2(2) + 1 h(0) = 2(0) + 1 h(-2) = 2(-2) + 1
h(2) = 4 + 1 h(0) = 0 + 1 h(-2) = -4 + 1
h(2) = 5 h(0) = 1 h(-2) = -3
