| Question 4 |
Let R1 be a relation from A = {1, 3, 5, 7} to B = {2, 4, 6, 8} and R2 be another relation from B to C = {1, 2, 3, 4} as defined below:
1. An element x in A is related to an element y in B (under R1) if x + y is divisible by 3.
2. An element x in B is related to an element y in C (under R2) if x + y is even but not divisible by 3.
Which is the composite relation R1R2 from A to C?
| R1R2 = {(1, 2), (1, 4), (3, 3), (5, 4), (7, 3)} | |
| R1R2 = {(1, 2), (1, 3), (3, 2), (5, 2), (7, 3)} | |
| R1R2 = {(1, 2), (3, 2), (3, 4), (5, 4), (7, 2)} | |
| R1R2 = {(3, 2), (3, 4), (5, 1), (5, 3), (7, 1)} |
Question 4 Explanation:
From the given information,
R1 ={(1,2), (1,8), (3,6), (5,4), (7,2), (7,8)}
where x+y is divisible by 3
R2 = {(2,2), (4,4), (6,2), (6,4), (8,2)}
where x+y is not divisible by 3
Then the composition of R1 with R2 denotes R1R2, is the relation from A to C defined by property such as:
(x,z) ∈ R1R2, iff if there is a y ∈ B such that (x,y) ∈ R1 and (y,z) ∈ R2.
Thus, R1R2 = {(1,2), (3,2), (3,4), (5,4), (7,2)}
R1 ={(1,2), (1,8), (3,6), (5,4), (7,2), (7,8)}
where x+y is divisible by 3
R2 = {(2,2), (4,4), (6,2), (6,4), (8,2)}
where x+y is not divisible by 3
Then the composition of R1 with R2 denotes R1R2, is the relation from A to C defined by property such as:
(x,z) ∈ R1R2, iff if there is a y ∈ B such that (x,y) ∈ R1 and (y,z) ∈ R2.
Thus, R1R2 = {(1,2), (3,2), (3,4), (5,4), (7,2)}
