Given arbitrary sets A, B, and C, complete the given membership table to verify whether the two sets, A – (B ⋂ C) and (A – B) ⋂ (A – C), are equal. Tip:  For any cells of the table that display beyond the right border of the question box, use the TAB →| key to move from cell to cell, rather than ‘clicking’ in a cell to make an entry.

Which of these given arguments uses the fallacy of circular reasoning (or begging the question)?  Argument A:    Proving:  For every real number x, x < x + 1. Let x be an arbitrary real number. We know that 0 < 1. Adding x to both sides, gives x + 0 < x + 1.    And that gives the equivalent inequality x < x + 1. So for every real number x, x < x + 1. Argument B:   Proving:  For integers x and y, if xy is a multiple of 5, then x is a multiple of 5 and y is a multiple of 5. Let x and y be integers with xy a multiple of 5. x is a multiple of 5 means x = 5k, for some integer k. Similarly, y is a multiple of 5 means y = 5j for some integer j. Substituting for x and y, we get xy = (5k)(5j) = 5(5kj).  Since 5kj is an integer, the product xy, which equals 5(5kj), is a multiple of 5. So xy is a multiple of 5, when x is a multiple of 5 and y is a multiple of 5. Argument C:    Proving: For every positive real number x, x + 1/x ≥ 2. Let x be a positive real number with x + 1/x ≥ 2. Multiplying both sides by x, we have x2 + 1 ≥ 2x. So by algebra, we get x2 - 2x + 1 ≥ 0, or (x-1)2 ≥ 0. Since it is true that the square of any real number is positive, (x-1)2 ≥ 0 confirms that x + 1/x ≥ 2, for every positive real number x. Argument D:  Proving:  For all integers m and n, if m and n are odd, then (m+n) is odd. Let m and n be integers. We know that when m and n are even, then (m+n) is even. So if m and n are odd, (m+n) is odd.

Prove the following statement using a proof by cases.   “For all non-negative integers n ≤ 2, n2 ≤ 2n.” Use good proof technique.   Grading rubric:1 pt. State any givens and assumptions. 3 pt. Clearly identify the cases and prove each case.1 pt. State the final conclusion at the end of the proof. Note:  To avoid the need for typing superscript exponents, you may use the expression ‘n-squared’ or ‘n^2’ to represent n2.  Also the ≤ symbol can be written as
