Question

R is a relation on the set Z of integers and it is given by
(x, y) ∈ R ⇔ | x − y | ≤ 1. Then, R is ______________ .

Options

  • Reflexive and symmetric

  • Symmetric and transitive

  • an equivalence relation

Solution

Reflexive and symmetric

Reflexivity: Let xR. Then,

xx=0 < 1

⇒ |x≤ 1

(x, x∈ R for all ∈ Z

So, R is reflexive on Z.

Symmetry : Let (x, y)R. Then,

x|  0

⇒ |(yx|  1

⇒ y|  1         Since |xy|=|yx]

⇒ (y, x∈ R for all x, ∈ Z

So, R is symmetric on Z.

Transitivity Let (x, y∈ R and y, ∈ R. Then,

| x|  1 and y|  1

⇒ It is not always true that |xy|  1.

⇒ (x, z∉ R

So, R is not transitive on Z.
