Answer:

(a) Not a group

(b) Not a group

(c) Abelian group

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>In order for a system <G,*> to be a group, the following must be satisfied </em>

<em> (1) The binary operation is associative, i.e., (a*b)*c = a*(b*c) for all a,b,c in G </em>

<em>(2) There is an identity element, i.e., there is an element e such that a*e = e*a = a for all a in G </em>

<em> (3) For each a in G, there is an inverse, i.e, another element a' in G such that a*a' = a'*a = e (the identity) </em>

<em> </em>

If in addition the operation * is commutative (a*b = b*a for every a,b in G), then the group is said to be Abelian

(a)  

The system <G,*> is not a group since there are no identity.  

To see this, suppose there is an element e such that  

a*e = a

then  

a-e = a which implies e=0

It is easy to see that 0 cannot be an identity.

For example  

2*0 = 2-0 = 2

Whereas

0*2 = 0-2 = -2

So 2*0 is not equal to 0*2

(b)

The system <G,*> is not a group either.

If A is a matrix 2x2 and the determinant of A det(A)=0, then the inverse of A does not exist.

(c)

The table of the operation G is showed in the attachment.

It is evident that this system is isomorphic under the identity map, to the cyclic group

\mathbb{Z}_{5}

the system formed by the subset of Z, {0,1,2,3,4} with the operation of addition module 5, which is an Abelian cyclic group

We conclude that the system <G,*> is Abelian.

Brenda throws a dart at this square-shaped target: Part A: Is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target clos
Masteriza [31]
Either way.  The probability of hitting the circle is:

P(C)=Area of circle divided by area of square

P(W)=(area of square minus area of circle divided by area of square

P(C)=(πr^2)/s^2

P(W)=(s^2-πr^2)/s^2

...

Okay with know dimensions, r=1 (because r=d/2 and d=2 so r=1), s=11 we have:

P(inside circle)=π/121  (≈0.0259  or 2.6%)

P(outside circel)=(121-π)/121  (≈0.9744 or 97.4%)
