Question
Let R = {(a, a), (b, b), (c, c), (a, b)} be a relation on set A = a, b, c. Then, R is:
  1. Identify relation.
  2. Reflexive.
  3. Symmetric.
  4. Antisymmetric.

Answer

  1. Reflexive.

Solution:

Reflexivity: Since $(\text{a, a})\in\text{R}\ \forall\ \text{a}\in\text{A},$ R is reflexive on A.

Symmetry: Since $(\text{a, b})\in\text{R}$ but $(\text{b, a})\notin\text{R,}$ is not symmetric on A.

⇒ R is not antisymmetric on A.

Also, R is not an identity relation on A.

A bag contains $N$ balls out of which $3$ balls are white, $6$ balls are green, and the remaining balls are blue. Assume that the balls are identical otherwise. Three balls are drawn randomly one after the other without replacement. For $i=1,2,3$, let $W_l, G_l$, and $B_l$ denote the events that the ball drawn in the $i^{\text {mh }}$ draw is a white ball, green ball, and blue ball, respectively, If the probability $P\left(W_1 \cap G_2 \cap B_3\right)=\frac{2}{5 N}$ and the conditional probability $P\left(B_3 \mid W_1 \cap G_2\right)=\frac{2}{9}$, then $N$ equals. . . .
