Q4. If A = B = Z (set of integers), then find A+B.
Answers
Answer:
A relation is defined on Z such that aRb⇒(a−b) is divisible by 5,
For Reflexive: (a,a)∈R.
Since, (a−a)=0 is divisible by 5. Therefore, the realtion is reflexive.
For symmetric: If (a,b)∈R⇒(b,a)∈R.
(a,b)∈R⇒(a−b) is divisible by 5.
Now, (b−a)=−(a−b) is also divisible by 5. Therefore, (b,a)∈R
Hence, the relation is symmetric.
For Transitive: If (a,b)∈R and (b,a)∈R⇒(a,c)∈R.
(a,b)∈R⇒(a−b) is divisible by 5.
(b,c)∈R⇒(b−c) is divisible by 5.
Then (a−c)=(a−b+b−c)=(a−b)+(b−c) is also divisible by 5. Therefore, (a,c)∈R.
Hence, the relation is transitive.
There, the relation is equivalent.
Now, depending upon the remainder obtained when dividing (a−b) by 5 we can divide the set Z iinto 5 equivalent classes and they are disjoint i.e., there are no common elements between any two classes.
