Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an equivalence relation P on Z as

Let x,y\in Z

xPy if and only if k\in Z such that x-y=2k.

We have to show that how the reflexive property and symmetric property of an equivalence relations hold for P on Z.

We know that reflexive property

a is related to a by given relations.

If xPax then we get

x-x=0=2(0)

Where k=0 and 0 belongs to integers.

Hence, the relation satisfied reflexive property.

Symmetric property :If a is related to b then b is related to b.

If x and y is related by the relation

x-y=2k where k is any integer

y-x=-2k=2(-k)

k belongs to integers.

Hence, relation satisfied  symmetric property.

Help meeeeeeeeeeee:(
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/3)^2x(1/3)^-1

so, we can write this as:

1/3 x 1/3 x 3/1

if calculated by cutting, the answer is 1/3

There is also an easier way to do this,

(1/3)^2 x (1/3)^-1

as the bases are same, the powers will be added.

2+(-1)

2-1

=1

so,

(1/3)^1 or 1/3
