A student made an error while proving the following claim that he thought was true.
Claim: Let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a function, and let $A$ and $B$ be subsets of $X$. Then $f ( A \cap B ) = f ( A ) \cap f ( B )$.
The student's proof: If I show that the sets $f ( A \cap B )$ and $f ( A ) \cap f ( B )$ are subsets of each other, the proof is complete.
Now let $c \in f ( A \cap B )$. I. There exists a $d \in A \cap B$ such that $c = f ( d )$. II. Since $d \in A$ and $d \in B$, we have $f ( d ) \in f ( A )$ and $f ( d ) \in f ( B )$. Thus $c = f ( d ) \in f ( A ) \cap f ( B )$.
On the other hand, let $c \in f ( A ) \cap f ( B )$. III. We have $c \in f ( A )$ and $c \in f ( B )$. From this, there exists an $a \in A$ such that $c = f ( a )$ and a $\mathrm { b } \in \mathrm { B }$ such that $c = f ( b )$. IV. Since $c = f ( a )$ and $c = f ( b )$, we have $a = b$. V. Since $a \in A , b \in B$ and $a = b$, we have $a \in A \cap B$ and thus $c = f ( a ) \in f ( A \cap B )$.
In which of the numbered steps did this student make an error?
A) I
B) II
C) III
D) IV
E) V
turkey-yks 2015 Q19 True/False Justification View
Ali; starting with the equality $x = y$ for non-zero, equal real numbers x and y, follows the following steps in order.
I. Let us multiply both sides of the equality by x: $$x ^ { 2 } = x \cdot y$$
II. Let us subtract $\mathrm { y } ^ { 2 }$ from both sides: $$x ^ { 2 } - y ^ { 2 } = x \cdot y - y ^ { 2 }$$
III. Let us factor both sides: $$( x + y ) ( x - y ) = y ( x - y )$$
IV. Let us divide both sides by $\mathrm { x } - \mathrm { y }$: $$x + y = y$$
V. Let us substitute y for x: $$2 y = y$$
As a result of these steps, Ali arrives at the conclusion "Every number equals twice itself."
Accordingly, in which of the numbered steps did Ali make an error?
A) I B) II C) III D) IV E) V

turkey-yks 2017 Q31 True/False Justification View
A student made an error while proving the following claim that he believed to be true.
Claim: The number $\pi$ equals the number $e$.\ The student's proof: Let $f ( x )$ and $g ( x )$ be functions for $x > 0$ defined as $\mathrm{f} ( \mathrm{x} ) = \ln ( \pi \mathrm{x} )$ and $\mathrm{g} ( \mathrm{x} ) = \ln ( \mathrm{ex} )$.\ I. For every $x > 0$, the derivatives of functions $f ( x )$ and $g ( x )$ are equal to each other.\ II. Therefore, for every $x > 0$, functions $f ( x )$ and $g ( x )$ are equal to each other.\ III. Since $\ln ( x )$ is one-to-one and $f ( x ) = g ( x )$, we conclude that for every $x > 0$, $\pi x = ex$.\ IV. If two functions are equal for every $x > 0$, then their values at $x = 1$ are the same.\ V. Since the values of the functions $\pi \mathrm{x}$ and $ex$ at $x = 1$ are the same, we conclude that $\pi = \mathrm{e}$.\ In which of the numbered steps did this student make an error?\ A) I\ B) II\ C) III\ D) IV\ E) V
turkey-yks 2018 Q6 True/False Justification View
Let $a$ and $b$ be integers. The notation $\mathrm { a } \mid \mathrm { b }$ means that $a$ divides $b$ exactly.
A student wants to prove that the proposition "If integers $a$, $b$ and $c$ satisfy the conditions $a \mid c$ and $b \mid c$, then $(a + b) \mid c$ also holds." is false by using the counterexample method.
Accordingly, which of the following could be the example given by the student?
