prove that A= B
2. By completing the square, prove that x^2 + xy + y^2 = 0 <=> x=0 and y=0
3a. Suppose p and q are integers satisfying p^3 + p(q^2) + q^3 =0
i) prove that p is even if and only if q is even.
ii) Using (i), deduce that p and q are both even
3b. Hence show that if x is a real number for which x^3 + x + 1=0

1. A,B,C are 3 sets such that A∪C = B∪C and C﹨A = C﹨B prove that A= B

3b. Hence show that if x is a real number for which x^3 + x + 1=0 then x is irrational.

myisland8132::: 我補充左3b題目係問x is irrational 我睇唔明第一題ge proof... 3aii 點做?

第一題我明明地na... 不過第一行ge Remember that C﹨A=C∩A' 有咩用? 仲有... 點樣唸用 if x∈A but x /∈ C 同埋 if x∈A and x ∈ C 黎prove?

(II) otherwise both p and q are odd From p^3+pq^2+q^3=p(p^2+q^2)+q^3 we know that this number is odd which is a contradiction since 0 is even. 係咪用prove by contradition? p and q are both even 嘅negation 唔係 p or q is odd 嗎?
