- Assume that is a binary operation on a non empty set A, and suppose that is both commutative and associative. Use the definitions of the commutative and associative properties to show that [ (ab)c ]d=(dc)(ab) for all a,b,c and d in A.arrow_forward2. Prove that is commutative if and only if is commutative.arrow_forward[Type here] 7. Let be the set of all ordered pairs of integers and . Equality, addition, and multiplication are defined as follows: if and only if and in , Given that is a ring, determine whether is commutative and whether has a unity. Justify your decisions.

- Determine whether the set S={1,x2,2+x2} spans P2.arrow_forwardLabel each of the following statements as either true or false. 1. Mapping composition is a commutative operation.arrow_forwardTrue or False Label each of the following statements as either true or false. 7. Any binary operation defined on a set containing a single element is commutative and associative.arrow_forward
- Express (AB)(AB) in terms of unions and intersections that involve A,A,B,andBarrow_forwardTrue or False Label each of the following statements as either true or false. 10. A transposition leaves all elements except two fixed.arrow_forward15. Let be a binary operation on the non empty set . Prove that if contains an identity element with respect to , the identity element is unique.arrow_forward
