Question One:
The function f:ℝ→ℝ is defined by the rule f(x)=2x2 −3x+1 .
(i) Show that f is not a one–to–one function and that it is not an onto function.
(ii) Which interval of ℝ is the range of the function f ?
(iii) Express the image set f([1,2]) as an interval of ℝ .
(iv) Express the preimage set f−1([0,∞)) as a union of intervals of ℝ .

Question Two:
Let h:A→B be a one–to–one function from a set A to a set B. The function f can be used to
construct a function H:𝒫(A)→𝒫(B) as follows: For each X∈𝒫(A)
H(X)=h(X) (i.e. the image set of 𝑋 , by ℎ ).
Show that 𝐻 is one–to–one ⇔ ℎ is one–to–one.
Question Three:
Let A , B and C be subsets of a universal set. Either prove or provide a counter example for the
following statements:
(i) (A∖(B∩C))∖(B∖C)=A∖B .
(ii) (A∖B)∖(B∖C)=A∖C.
(iii) (A∪B)∖C=A∪(B∖C).

Question Four:
(i) Show that the function f:ℕ×ℕ→ℕ , defined by the rule
f(m.n)=2m3n
is a one–to–one function (injective) function.
(ii) Show that the function g:ℝ∖{3}→ℝ∖{2} , defined by the rule
g(x)= 2x
x−3
is a one–to–one function (injective) function, which is onto. Find the inverse function
g−1 of the function g .

Question Five:
The function f:(0,1)→(0,1) is defined by the rule f(x)= 2x
1+y2 . Show that f is a one–to–one and
onto function. Find the rule f−1(x) of the inverse function f−1

Does your thesis statement identify the two subjects you are comparing and tell why they are alike (and perhaps also briefly acknowledge their differences)? Does your paper’s structure follow either a point-by-point or a subject-by-subject pattern?

Literature Criticism 1

• Does a direct thesis convey both the subject and the reviewer’s value judgment?
• Does the review provide a summary or description to help you experience the film, music, event, etc.? Note places where the author provides too much or too little detail.
• Does the essay clearly identify relevant criteria for evaluation? Are they appropriate, believable, and consistent?
• Are any important features of the reviewed subject omitted?
• Logos (logic, content): Does the essay provide sufficient, relevant, and interesting details and examples to adequately inform and entertain?
• Ethos (author): Does the author’s judgment seem sound and convincing?
• Pathos (emotional appeals): Does the author responsibly and effectively utilize emotional appeals to the audience?
• Does the author include adequate reference to the opposition and respond to that opposition appropriately?

Poetry Analysis 1

1.What is the theme of the poem? What is the poet trying to say? What is the poem about?

2.What happens in the poem? Are conflicts or themes introduced? Resolved?

3.Who is the speaker? What is the “point of view” or perspective of the speaker? The perspective might be social, intellectual, political, or even physical.

4.What is the setting? What is the time and place? How does the poet make use of the physical description? Does it create a mood?

5.Are there any key statements or lines that indicate meaning? Look for one key line or symbol; however, the poet may make use of recurring symbols, actions, or motifs.

What does it tell us about the society in question, how does it tell us these things, what can it not tell us, and why. For what the artifact or artifacts cannot tell us and why?

Select A, B or C from the images below and present an argument based on your analysis of that material artifact or artifacts. In this case, that means: what does it tell us about the society in question, how does it tell us these things, what can it not tell us, and why. For what the artifact or artifacts cannot tell us and why, you can refer to Professor Sullivan’s presentation and suggest how in the future there might be a way, or additional kinds of evidence, that would give us answers.

Ethical Decision Making

College life brings with it a new set of opportunities and challenges. You have entered a community of peers; some of you are living away from home without the everyday guidance and support of parents, family and friends. You are encountering a degree of diversity in everyday living to which you are probably not accustomed. And academically, expectations have changed dramatically. College faculty do not see themselves as disciplinarians and there are no school principals monitoring your activities and attendance. You are on your own, managing your time, negotiating choices and relationships, and dealing with a more complicated set of academic expectations and responsibilities. In every setting – dorm, classroom, college activities and work – you must balance your needs with obligations to yourself and to others. And this means that you are involved in ethical decision making.

In a 4-5 page essay, discuss a real situation you have encountered this semester which had an ethical component or dimension – that is, where you had to negotiate your own interests, values and needs within the context of the needs and/or expectations of others. You can use an example taken from your own experience, current events, the readings or class discussion. Do you believe the decision/action/resolution was ethical? Explain the decision-making process. Be sure to analyze your example within the context of the differing approaches to ethics discussed in Mill, Kant and Gilligan. How did the readings help you think about the situation from a new or deeper perspective?
