Question

The following defines a relation on N:
x + 4y = 10 x, y ∈ N.
Determine which of the above relations are reflexive, symmetric and transitive.

Sum

Solution

x + 4y = 10; x, y ∈ N

R = {(x, y): x + 4y = 10; x, y ∈ N}

R = {(2, 2), (6, 1)}

It’s clearly seen (1, 1) ∉ R

Hence, R is not symmetric.

(x, y) ∈ R ⇒ x + 4y = 10

And (y, z) ∈ R ⇒ y + 4z = 10

⇒ x – 16z = – 30

⇒ (x, z) ∉ R

Therefore, R is not transitive.
