Sy + 11|(x – y).
State the least positive integer in the equivalence class of [14].
b) For a set X ={1,2,3,4}, let P be the partition
{{1,3}, {2, 4}}.
The partition P induces a relation R on X. How many distinct ordered pairs are there in R?

{{1,3, 4}, {2}, {5}}.
In the equivalence relation on X induced by P, how many distinct equivalence classes are there?
d) Let X = {1,2,3, 4}. Define a binary relation R on subsets of X by ARB if and only if A and B have the same
number of elements. Does {1}R{1,2} hold? Answer yes or no.
e) Suppose that S'is an equivalence relation on a set A = {1,2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. If 4 € [3] n [5], then how are [3] and
