Show that the relation R consisting of all pairs(x, y)such that x and y are bit strings of length three or more that agree in th

eir first three bits is an equivalence relation on the set of all bit strings of length three or more

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalence relation R satisfies

  • Reflexivity: for all x on the underlying set in which R is defined, (x,x)∈R, or xRx.
  • Symmetry: For all x,y, if xRy then yRx.
  • Transitivity: For all x,y,z, If xRy and yRz then xRz.

Let's check these properties: Let x,y,z be bit strings of length three or more

The first 3 bits of x are, of course, the same 3 bits of x, hence xRx.

If xRy, then then the 1st, 2nd and 3rd bits of x are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd bits of y respectively. Then y agrees with x on its first third bits (by symmetry of equality), hence yRx.

If xRy and yRz, x agrees with y on its first 3 bits and y agrees with z in its first 3 bits. Therefore x agrees with z in its first 3 bits (by transitivity of equality), hence xRz.

3x+4y=5 what is this in slope intercept form
tia_tia [17]
Slope intercept form is to leave y by itself. ok this is the initial question 3x+4y=5 and we want y by itself. first subtract 3x by both sides. you now have 4y=5-3x, then divide 4 by both sides. y=5-3x/4, this is slope intercept form, if you still need help download the app socratic and photomath.

The value of the functions f(x) and g(x) will be √(4x + 3) and √2. Then the correct option is B.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

A statement, principle, or policy that creates the link between two variables is known as a function. Functions are found all across mathematics and are required for the creation of complex relationships.

If (f g)(x) = h(x) such that h(x) = √(8x + 6). Then we have

(f g)(x) = h(x)

f(x) · g(x) = h(x)

Then put the value of h(x), then we have

f(x) · g(x) = √(8x + 6)

f(x) · g(x) = √2(4x + 3)

f(x) · g(x) = √(4x + 3) × √2

Thus, the value of the functions f(x) and g(x) will be √(4x + 3) and √2.

Then the correct option is B.

More about the function link is given below.
