R of S
Homework Equations
The relations to be... "composition'ed?".
R= R^2, the XY plane, i.e. {(x,y)}, the set pf all (x,y)
S= {(x,y) : y=x^3}, set of all (x,y) such that y=x^3
For example
R of S = {(a,c) : [itex]\exists[/itex]b such that a^3=b and {(b,c)}}
The Attempt at a Solution
I feel it should end up being all of R^2, but this seems too simple. For R of S, S maps a into[itex]\sqrt[3]{b}[/itex], then R maps b into, c. But that c is all real numbers. I have done these before, and the teacher wants a graph of a as x, and c as y. Because c will be all real for each b, this will be a succession of vertical lines. But I can see no restrictions on a to prevent the final graph from just being all of the plane (the ac place now).
