Question

Mark the correct alternative in the following question:

Let R be a relation on the set N of natural numbers defined by nRm if n divides m. Then, R is _____________ .

Options

  • Reflexive and symmetric

  • Transitive and symmetric

  • Equivalence

  • Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric

MCQ

Solution

We have,

R = {(m, n) : n divides m; m, n  N}



Hence, R is Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric.

Read the following passage:

An organization conducted bike race under two different categories – Boys and Girls. There were 28 participants in all. Among all of them, finally three from category 1 and two from category 2 were selected for the final race. Ravi forms two sets B and G with these participants for his college project.
Let B = {b1, b2, b3} and G = {g1, g2}, where B represents the set of Boys selected and G the set of Girls selected for the final race.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

  1. How many relations are possible from B to G? (1)
  2. Among all the possible relations from B to G, how many functions can be formed from B to G? (1)
  3. Let R : B `rightarrow` B be defined by R = {(x, y) : x and y are students of the same sex}. Check if R is an equivalence relation. (2)
