1. H has at most 3 elements.
2. H has no least element.
3. Between any two elements of H there is a third one in H.
4. For any real number there is a greater one in H.
1. ∀ x, y, z, w ∈ H x = y ∨ x = z ∨ x = w ∨ y = z ∨ y = w ∨ z = w
2. ∀ x ∈ H ∃ y ∈ H y < x
3. ∀ x, y ∈ H x < y ∃ z ∈ H x < z < y

A gambler playing with 3 playing cubes wants to know weather to bet on sum 11 or 12. Which of the sums will occur more probably?

Let A be a set and let P(A) denote the set of all subsets of A (i.e., the power set of A). Prove that A and P(A) do not have the same cardinality. (The term cardinality is used in mathematics to refer to the size of a set.)
This is a proof by contradiction. Suppose they have the same cardinality, then there exists a bijection T : A → P(A). Let K = {x ∈ A : x ∈ T(x)}. Since T is onto, there exists y ∈ A such that T(y) = K. If y ∈ K, then by the definition of K we can conclude y ∈ T(y) = K, so y ∈ K. Similarly, if y ∈ K, y ∈ T(y) so we conclude that y ∈ K. In both cases we have reached a contradiction.

At t = 0 there are 50 grams of a radioactive isotope. The isotope has a half-life of 16 minutes. Use the exponential decay model to write the amount A as a function of time t.
A = A0e −rt = 50e^( −0.04332t), where A is in grams and t in minutes.
Let f : R → R be differentiable and assume there is no x ∈ R such that f(x) = f 0 (x) = 0. Show that S = {x | 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, f(x) = 0} is finite
Bonus Question: extra 600 points
Consider f −1 ({0}). Since {0} is closed and f continuous, f −1 ({0}) is closed. Therefore S = [0, 1] ∩ f −1 ({0}) is a closed and bounded subset of R. Hence, S is compact.
Assume, by way of contradiction, that S is infinite. Then (by theorem A.1) there is a limit point x ∈ S; i.e., there is a sequence {xn} of distinct points in S which converges to x.
Also, as all points are in S, f(xn) = f(x) = 0 for all n ∈ N. We now show that f 0 (x) = 0, which will give us our desired contradiction. Since |xn − x| → 0, we can write the derivative of f as follows:
f 0 (x) = limn→∞ f(x + (xn − x)) − f(x) xn − x = limn→∞ f(xn) − f(x) xn − x = 0.
The last equality holds since f(x) = f(xn) = 0 holds for all n ∈ N.

Show that
1. N ∼ E.
2. N ∼ Z.
3. (−1, 1) ∼ R.
1. Let f : N → E given by f(n)=2n. Clearly this map is one-to-one and onto.
2. This can be shown by defining a bijection f : N → Z as f(n) = 1−n 2 if n is odd, n 2 if n is even.
3. Using calculus one can show that the function f : (−1, 1) → R defined by f(x) = x x2 − 1 is one-to-one and onto. In fact, (a, b) ∼ R for any interval (a, b).
The owner of the Good Deals Store opens a new store across town. For the new store, the owner estimates that, during business hours, an average of 90 shoppers per hour enter the store and each of them stays an average of 12 minutes. The average number of shoppers in the new store at any time is what percent less than the average number of shoppers in the original store at any time? (Note: Ignore the percent symbol when entering your answer. For example, if the answer is 42.1%, enter 42.1)
