Question

How can I check closure, associativity, identity, inverse and commutativity for v) ?

Question 3 In each case below, verify whether the described algebraic structure is a group.
Check the axioms and do not forget to verify whether the given object is indeed an algebraic
structure! In each case, additionally check whether it is commutative - either provide a coun-
terexample or argue that it it is indeed commuative (verify this axiom even if it is not a group,
but only if it is an algebraic structure). Justify your answer and show all work.
(i) (R²,*), where (x,y) ⋆ (a,b) = (x+a,y−b). (Here R² = {(z, w) : z, w = R}.)
(ii) (R\ {0},0), where a ob=a². b².
(iii) The complex numbers of complex norm 1 under the usual complex multiplication.
(iv) The set of all 2 × 2 upper-triangular matrices having determinant 1, under the usual matrix
multiplication.
(v) The set Q[x] of all polynomials in x with coefficients from Q and under the usual addition
of polynomials.
