Let N= {1, 2, 3, 4, .} be the set of natural numbers and S= (1, 4, 9, 16, ...} be the set of squares of the natural numbers. Then N - S, since we have the one-to-one correspondence 1 + 1, 2 + 4, 3 + 9, 4 + 16, ...
n+ n?. (This example is interesting, since it shows that an infinite set can be equivalent to a proper subset of itself.) Show that each of the following pairs of sets are equivalent by carefully describing a one-to-one
correspondence between the sets. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
(a) The whole numbers and natural numbers, W = {0, 1, 2, 3, ..} and N= {1, 2, 3, 4, ...}
Which of the following describes a one-to-one correspondence between the two sets?
O A. For each element in W, there is an element in N that is double that element.
O B. For each element in w. there is an element in N that is 1 areater than double that element.
