Equivalence classes for following relation on N

5b. Describe the equivalence classes for the following relations on N. x~y iif x mod 2 = y mod 2 and x mod 4 = y mod 4

Prove that R is reflexive

8. Let R be a relation on a set S such that R is symmetric and transitive and for each x ε S there is an element y ε S such that x R y. Prove that R is an equivalence relation (i.e. prove that R is reflexive)

Analyzing Algorithm 6b

For the following algorithm find the number of times the addition operation (+) is executed during the running of the program. Answer the question by giving a formula in terms of n: for i := 1 to n do for j := 1 to i do x := x + f(x) od; x := x + g(x) od

Analzing Algorithm 8b
