Let be the set of real numbers
This question has Statement -2A=\{(x, y) \in R \times R: y-x is an equivalence relation on .
Statement-2 : for some rational number is an equivalence relation on .
Options
- AStatement is true, Statement is true; Statement is not a correct explanation for Statement
- BStatement is true, Statement- 2 is false.
- CStatement is false, Statement is true.
- DStatement is true, Statement is true; Statement is a correct explanation for Statement
Correct answer
B. Statement is true, Statement- 2 is false.
Step-by-step solution
is an integer
is an integer is Reflexive
is an integer is an integer is symmetric
are integers
As sum of two integers is an integer.
is an integer
is transitive. Hence statement is true.
Also is a rational number is reflexive
is rational need not be rational
i.e., is rational is not rational
Hence B is not symmetric
is not an equivalence relation.
