उत्तर
On Q, * is defined by a * b = ab + 1.
It is known that:
ab = ba &mnForE; a, b ∈ Q
⇒ ab + 1 = ba + 1 &mnForE; a, b ∈ Q
⇒ a * b = a * b &mnForE; a, b ∈ Q
Therefore, the operation * is commutative.
It can be observed that:
(1 * 2) * 3 = (1 × 2 + 1) * 3 = 3 * 3 = 3 × 3 + 1 = 10
1 * (2 * 3) = 1 * (2 × 3 + 1) = 1 * 7 = 1 × 7 + 1 = 8
∴(1 * 2) * 3 ≠ 1 * (2 * 3) ; where 1, 2, 3 ∈ Q
Therefore, the operation * is not associative.
