... Exercise 6: The fact “proved” to the left can be demonstrated just as well by drawing a line segment (with length 1) and dividing it over and over again in much the same way. Show this version of the proof without words. Exercise 7: Draw a new diagram like the one in the previous exercise, but this ...

Week two notes
... Expressions with the same value, like 12 + 7 and 7 + 12, are equivalent expressions. You can use the Commutative and Associative Properties to write equivalent expressions. ...

... 3. Prove (by contradiction) that there does not exists a smallest positive real number (that is there does not exists an r ∈ R such that r > 0 and, if s ∈ R and s > 0 then r ≤ s). Sometimes we will want to prove that a statement of the form (∀x)(P (x)) is false. If we do this by giving a constructiv ...

... The language of sentential logic, that is, the set of all wffs, corresponds to C ∗ , the intersection of all inductive sets w.r.t. B and F. By the unique readability theorem C ∗ is freely generated from the set of sentence symbols by the functions in F. This guarantees the uniqueness of the extensi ...
