Question 2
A relation ‘R’ is defined on ordered pairs of integers as:
(x,y)R(u,v) if x &lt u and y &gt v. Then R is
A
Neither a partial order nor an equivalence relation
B
A partial order but not a total order
C
A total order
D
An equivalence relation
Question 2 Explanation: 
A binary relation is an equivalence relation on a nonempty set S if and only if the relation is reflexive(R), symmetric(S) and transitive(T).
A binary relation is a partial order if and only if the relation is reflexive(R), antisymmetric(A) and transitive(T).
From the given relation, it is neither partial order nor equivalence relation.
Correct Answer: A
