hope it helps u mark as brainliest answer
- A is closed under multiplication
- A is not closed under addition
Given :
The set A = { 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , . . . . } i.e. a set of odd positive integers
To find :
Determine whether A is closed under i) multiplication ii) addition
Concept :
A set S is said to be closed under an operation * if for all a , b ∈ A we have a*b ∈ A
Solution :
Step 1 of 3 :
Write down the given set
Here the given set is A = { 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , . . . . } i.e. a set of odd positive integers
Step 2 of 3 :
Check whether A is closed under multiplication
A = { 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , . . . . }
For all a , b ∈ A we have a × b ∈ A
Hence A is closed under multiplication
Step 3 of 3 :
Check whether A is closed under addition
A = { 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , . . . . }
1 , 3 ∈ A
But 1 + 3 = 4 ∉ A
For all a , b ∈ A we have a + b ∉ A
Hence A is not closed under addition
