Answer:

Answer is given below under explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the domain is a set of real numbers. Let's depict by a & b.

We will use the following symbols;

βˆ€ means for all

Ǝ there exists

∧ means logical conjuction

Thus;

A) Ǝ a,b : ( a/b < 1, b/a < 1 )

B) βˆ€ a : ( a > 0 = 1/a > 0 )

C) Ǝ a,b : (a + b = ab)

D) βˆ€ a,b : [ ( a > 0 ) ∧ ( b > 0 ) = (( a/b > 0 ) ∧ ( b/a > 0 ))]

E) βˆ€ b : [( b > 0 ) ∧ ( b < 1) = ( 1/b > 1 )]

F) n ( ( Ǝ x βˆ€ b ( a < b ) )
