Let $R$ be a relation defined on the set $Z$ of all integers such that $x R y$ if and only if $x+2y$ is divisible by $3$. Then:

  • A
    $R$ is not transitive
  • B
    $R$ is symmetric only
  • C
    $R$ is an equivalence relation
  • D
    $R$ is not an equivalence relation

The relation $R$ defined on a set $A$ is antisymmetric if $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, a) \in R$ implies $a = b$ for all $a, b \in A$. Based on this definition,the relation $R$ is antisymmetric if $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, a) \in R$ implies $a = b$,which is equivalent to saying that if $a \neq b$,then it is not possible for both $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, a) \in R$ to be true. Therefore,the condition is that for $a \neq b$,we cannot have both $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, a) \in R$.
