2 Let F be a field and let R = F[x, y] be the ring of
polynomials in two variables with coefficients in F.
(a) Prove that
ev(0,0) : F[x, y] → F
p(x, y) → p(0, 0)
is a surjective ring homomorphism.
(b) Prove that ker ev(0,0) is equal to the ideal (x, y) = {xr(x,
y) + ys(x, y) | r,s ∈ F[x, y]}
(c) Use the first isomorphism theorem to prove that (x, y) ⊆
F[x, y]...
