Instructions:
For every item given below, determine which kind of algebraic structure it is, and give at least one proof of
why it is not of the higher structure (e.g. it is a semigroup but not a monoid because it doesn't have an
identity element, etc.). Make a table like the one below. Put a check(/) if it satisfies the property, cross (X),
otherwise.
If it is a semigroup, show associativity by giving proof or examples.
If it is a commutative semigroup, show commutativity by giving proof or examples.
If it is a monoid, identify the identity element through computation.
If it is a group, identify the inverse element through computation.
If it is an abelian group, show commutativity by giving proof or examples.
Explain how you arrived at your answers. Please note this notations: Z = set of integers, Q = set of rational
numbers, R=set of real numbers, Z+ and Q+ = positive numbers, e = positive numbers including zero
1. A = R, (a*b) = a+b
2. B=Z, (a*b) = a+b
3. C=Z+, (a*b) = ([max(a,b)]/8) + 3
4. D= Q+, (a*b) = (a · b)/4
5. E=Z+, (a*b) = (a · b)/5
6. F= Q, (a*b) = (Imax(a,b)]/b) - 9
7. G=Z+, (a*b) = |min(a,b)\/a
