Define a function G: RR by the rule G(x) = 2 - 3x for all real numbers x. Is the following a proof demonstrating that G is onto? To prove that G is onto, you must prove that for all y in Y, there exists an x in X such that G(x) = y Proof: y = 2 - 3x Solving for x using algebra, x = (2-y)/3 Plugging x back into G you get, y = 2 - 3((2 - y)/3) Using algebra, y = y so G is onto [as was to be shown]. True False
