Show that the following pairs of sets have the same cardinality.












1















(a) Integers divisible by 3, and the even positive integers.



(b) $Bbb {R}$, and the interval $(0,infty)$.



(c) The interval $[0, 2)$, and the set [5,6)∪[7,8).



(d) The intervals $(-infty, -1)$ and $(-1, 0)$.




I know that cardinality means that there is a bijection between the two sets, and that means there is a surjection and injection. For the first one I think you can simply make a function that is a bijection and prove that it is an injection and surjection. I am not sure how to do the last three.



Sorry for the poor formatting in advance and if you need more information about the question I am more than happy to provide it.



Thank you.

    (b) $mathbb{R}$, and the interval (0,∞).



    Consider $f : mathbb{R}rightarrow (0,infty)$ defined by $f(x)=e^x.$



    (c) The interval [0,2), and the set [5,6) or [7,8).



    Consider $g: [0,2)rightarrow [5,6)$ defined by $g(x)=5+frac{x}{2}$ or $g'(x)=7+frac{x}{2}$ if codomain is $[7,8)$.



    (d) The intervals (−∞,−1) and (−1,0).

      a) Let $A$ be a set of integers divisible by 3 and $C$ a set of positive even integers. You can take a composition of following functions. First $f:Ato mathbb{Z}$ defined with $$nlongmapsto {nover 3}$$



      and then $g:mathbb{Z}to C$ defined by:



      $$
      g(n)
      begin{cases}
      = 4n+2 & text{if } ngeq 0, \
      = 4|n| & text{if } n < 0. \
      end{cases}
      $$



      Then let $gcirc f$ will do the job.

        The bijections, reading left to right, can be chosen as:



        (a) $|4x/3|+2[xge 0]$ (b) $x+sqrt{1+x^2}$ (c) $x+5+lfloor xrfloor$ (d) $1/x$.
