Check whether the relation R on the set S = {1, 2, 3} is an equivalent

Mathematics

kozerog [31]3 years ago

Answer:

R isn't an equivalence relation. It is reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S denote a set of elements. S \times S would denote the set of all ordered pairs of elements of S\!.

For example, with S = \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace, (3,\, 2) and (2,\, 3) are both members of S \times S. However, (3,\, 2) \ne (2,\, 3) because the pairs are ordered.

A relation R on S\! is a subset of S \times S. For any two elementsa,\, b \in S, a \sim b if and only if the ordered pair (a,\, b) is in R\!.

 

A relation R on set S is an equivalence relation if it satisfies the following:

  • Reflexivity: for any a \in S, the relation R needs to ensure that a \sim a (that is: (a,\, a) \in R.)
  • Symmetry: for any a,\, b \in S, a \sim b if and only if b \sim a. In other words, either both (a,\, b) and (b,\, a) are in R, or neither is in R\!.
  • Transitivity: for any a,\, b,\, c \in S, if a \sim b and b \sim c, then a \sim c. In other words, if (a,\, b) and (b,\, c) are both in R, then (a,\, c) also needs to be in R\!.

The relation R (on S = \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace) in this question is indeed reflexive. (1,\, 1), (2,\, 2), and (3,\, 3) (one pair for each element of S) are all elements of R\!.

R isn't symmetric. (2,\, 3) \in R but (3,\, 2) \not \in R (the pairs in \! R are all ordered.) In other words, 3 isn't equivalent to 2 under R\! even though 2 \sim 3.

Neither is R transitive. (3,\, 1) \in R and (1,\, 2) \in R. However, (3,\, 2) \not \in R. In other words, under relation R\!, 3 \sim 1 and 1 \sim 2 does not imply 3 \sim 2.

Find the value of x. Then find the measure of each labeled angle
Artyom0805 [142]

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 10 :

3x + 6 = 4x – 12 ( reason: corresponding angles due to parallel lines)

simplify and get x, thus x = 18

to find 3x + 6 or 4x - 12(which is both the same),

3(18) + 6 = 60° , 4(18) - 12 = 60°

Question 11:

2x + 24 + x = 180 ( reason: interior angles due to parallel lines)

simplify again to get x, you will get x = 52

then find the individual by subbing in the value of x into the equation.

so 2x + 24 = 2(52)+24 = 128° and x = 52°

Which measurement is closest to the measure of segment W Z?
noname [10]
Like XZ divides the cord YV into two congruent parts (YW=5.27 cm=WV), this segment XZ must be perpendicular to the segment YV, then the angle XWY in triangle XWY is a right angle (90°) and the triangle XWY is a right angle.

We can apply the trigonometric ratios in triangle XWY:
Hypotenure: XY
sin 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°)/(hypothenuse)
sin 44°=YW/XY
sin 44°=(5.27 cm)/XY
Solving for XY. Cross multiplication:
sin44° XY=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by sin 44°:
sin 44° XY / sin 44° = (5.27 cm)/sin 44°
XY=(5.27/sin 44°) cm
XY=(5.27/0.694658370) cm
XY=7.586462929 cm

This value XY is the radius of the circle, then:
XZ=XY→XZ=7.586462969 cm

tan 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°) / (Adjacent leg to 44°)
tan 44°=YW/XW
tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/XW
Solving for XW. Cross multiplication:
tan 44° XW=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by tan 44°:
tan 44° XW / tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/tan 44°
XW=(5.27/tan 44°) cm
XW=(5.27/0.965688775) cm
XW=5.457244753 cm

WZ=XZ-XW
WZ=7.586462969 cm-5.457244753 cm
WZ=2.129218216 cm
Rounded to 2 decimal places:
WZ=2.13 cm

Answer: The <span>measurement is closest to the measure of segment WZ is
2.13 cm</span>

-2(11-12x)= -4(1-6x)
GalinKa [24]

The given equation -2(11 - 12x) = -4(1 - 6x) has infinite solutions

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

Given that we have to solve the given expression

Given expression is:

-2(11 - 12x) = -4(1- 6x)

We have to use distributive property to solve the given expression

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

Which means,

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Apply this in given expression

-2(11 - 12x) = -4(1-6x)

-22 + 24x = -4 + 24x

When both sides of the equation are simplified, the coefficients are the same, then infinite number of solutions occur

If we end up with the same term on both sides of the equal sign, such as 24x = 24x, then we have infinite solutions
