Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze the provided statements and classify each as either True or False:
-
(a) If and , then .
- Explanation: The set includes the element "h" twice, but in sets, duplicate elements are not counted. Therefore, , which is identical to set . Since both sets have the same elements, their cardinalities and are equal.
- Answer: True
-
(b) .
- Explanation: The expression means taking the reciprocal of . First, squaring gives , and taking the reciprocal of results in 25.
- Answer: True
-
(c) .
- Explanation: The equation is generally false. The square root of a sum is not equal to the sum of the square roots unless both and are zero, but in general, this equality does not hold.
- Answer: False
-
(d) The inequality has no solution.
- Explanation: The inequality implies that . However, since for all real numbers , there is no real solution to this inequality.
- Answer: True
