Homework Statement
A function f:R-->R^x is a homomorphism iff f(x+y) = f(x) + f(y) for all x,y in R
Homework Equations
I don't know what group R^x is. I can only assume it means Reals under multiplication . Would that mean that f(x+y) = f(x)f(y)? How does the function work? Since 5 is in R what would it be mapped to in t R^x?
The Attempt at a Solution
This isn't a homework question, I read it in the book as a false statement but there was no explanation as to what R^x was and I couldn't understand why it was false.
