Is this a group? The set Q of all rational numbers with operation addition.
2. [14 marks] Rational Numbers The rational numbers, usually denoted Q are the set {n E R 3p, q ZAq&0An= Note that we've relaxed the requirement from class that gcd(p, q) = 1. (a) Prove that the sum of two rational numbers is also a rational number (b) Prove that the product of two rational numbers is also a rational number (c) Suppose f R R and f(x)= x2 +x + 1. Show that Vx e R xe Qf(x) Q...
6 Set Operations • R, the set of real numbers • Q, the set of rational numbers: {a/b: ab € ZAb0} • Z, the set of integers: {..., -2,-1,0,1,2,...} • N, the set of natural numbers: {0,1,2,3,...} (e) What is NUQ? Q? (f) What kind of numbers are in R (g) If SCT, what is S T?
Problem 4.4. Let D=Q\{0}, the set of all non-zero rational numbers. For all r, yED, define c*y = 4cy, the ordinary product of 4, 2 and y. (For example, (2)*(3) = 4(2)(3) = 24.) (1) Determine whether (D, *) is a group. (2) Justify your claim in (1) carefully.
Let (Q, d) be the metric space consisting of the set Q of rational numbers with the standard metric d(x, y) = |x-yl. Show that the Heine Borel theorem fails for (Q,d). In other words, show that (Q, d) has a subset SCQ that is closed and bounded, but not compact

1. Let (Q, d) be the metric space consisting of the set Q of rational numbers with the standard metric d(x, y) = (x – yl. Show that the Heine-Borel theorem fails for (Q, d). In other words, show that (Q, d) has a subset SCQ that is closed and bounded, but not compact (8 points).
Suppose we tried to apply our real analysis definitions/methods
to the
set of rational numbers Q. In other words, in the definitions, we
only
consider rational numbers. E.g., [0, 1] now means [0, 1] ∩ Q, etc.
In
this setting:
(a) Find an open cover of [0, 1] that contains no finite subcover.
Hint:
Fix an irrational number α ∈ [0, 1] (as a subset of the reals
now!)
and for each (rational) q ∈ [0, 1] look for an...
