Question
Let R be the relation in the set N given by R = {(a, b) : a = b – 2, b > 6}. Choose the correct answer. (A) (2, 4) ∈ R (B) (3, 8) ∈ R (C) (6, 8) ∈ R (D) (8, 7) ∈ R
Solution
R = {(a, b) : a = b – 2, b > 6}
Now, since b > 6, (2, 4)
Also, as , (3, 8)
Ans. as
Now, consider (6, 8)
We have 8 > 6 and also, 6 = 8 - 2 (6, 8)
The correct answer C.
