Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of form \(3 K=4\) Number of form \(3 K+1=3\) Number of form \(3 K+2=4\) \(4 \times 4+3 \times 3+3 \times 3=34\) relations \(\Rightarrow x R y \Rightarrow y R x\) \(\Rightarrow( x - y )=3 \lambda,( y - z )=3 \mu\) \(\Rightarrow( x - z )=3(\lambda+\mu)\) \(R\) is reflexive,…
