Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 15

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given the relation \(R = \{(x, y) \in \mathbb{N} \times \mathbb{N} : \log_e(x + y) \leq 2\}\). This condition simplifies to: \(x + y \leq e^2\) Since \(e \approx 2.718\), we have \(e^2 \approx 7.389\). As \(x, y \in \mathbb{N}\), the sum \(x + y\) must be a natural number.…
