Are X,Y,Z Equal? Examining {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3}

  • Thread starter ptex

I would just have done it in a text editor. I also would have put the question in a quote box, so it would be easier to find.In summary, X, Y, Z are all equal to the set {1,2,3,4,5,6} and the given order is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The relations R1 and R2 are defined as {(x,y)| x+y < or = to 7} and {(y,z)| y-z > or = to 3}, respectively. The matrices A1 and A2 for these relations are correctly calculated as shown above. The matrix product A1 A1 is used

X=Y=Z={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Is this the same as
X={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Y={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Z={1,2,3,4,5,6}

If so {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3}
is the y the vertical (or side)and z the Horizontal (or top)?

Like this;
? 1 2 3 4 5 6
1 0 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 0 0 0
4 1 0 0 0 0 0
5 1 1 0 0 0 0
6 1 1 1 0 0 0

I'm afraid you will have to give more detail as to exactly what your question is.

Matrices in general do NOT have X, Y, Z parts- AND do not have 3 dimensions.

Perhaps the problem you are working on specifies in some way how X, Y, Z affects the matrix but you will have to tell us. Where did you get "X=Y=Z={1,2,3,4,5,6}"?

You :rolleyes: helped me with a question like this before and I got it. Now I am studing for a final.
Ok the whole question;
Code:
X=Y=Z={1,2,3,4,5,6} in that order and,
R[sub]1[/sub] = {(x,y)| x+y < or = to 7}
R[sub]2[/sub] = {(y,z)| y-z  > or = to 3}

a) The matrix A[sub]1[/sub] of the relation R[sub]1[/sub] (relative to the given orderings)

b) The matrix A[sub]2[/sub] of the relation R[sub]1[/sub] (relative to the given orderings)

c) The matrix product A[sub]1[/sub] A[sub]1[/sub]

d) Use the result of part (c) to find the matrix of the relation R[sub]2[/sub]0 R[sub]1[/sub].

e) Use the result of part (d) to find the relation R[sub]2[/sub]0 R[sub]1[/sub]. (as a set of ordered pairs).

For R[sub]1[/sub] I have;
? 1 2 3 4 5 6
1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2 1 1 1 1 1 0
3 1 1 1 1 0 0
4 1 1 1 0 0 0
5 1 1 0 0 0 0 
6 1 0 0 0 0 0

Your A1 looks fine to me. Of course, R1 would come out the same no matter which way you look at it. For R2, orientation matters.

You want each A(i,j) (where i is the row and j is the column) to have a 1 when Yi is related to Zj according to the relation R2. So, for example, A(6,1) = 1 because the value in Y6 minus the value in Z1 ≥ 3 (6-1=5)

So are these correct?

For R1 or A1 I have;
? 1 2 3 4 5 6
1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2 1 1 1 1 1 0
3 1 1 1 1 0 0
4 1 1 1 0 0 0
5 1 1 0 0 0 0
6 1 0 0 0 0 0

For R2 or A2 I have;
? 1 2 3 4 5 6
1 0 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 0 0 0
4 1 0 0 0 0 0
5 1 1 0 0 0 0
6 1 1 1 0 0 0

Looks correct.

PS: those code windows are annoying -- too much scrolling.
 
1.

What is the purpose of examining {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3}?

The purpose of examining {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3} is to determine whether or not the values of y and z are equal or if there is a difference of at least 3 between them. This is important in understanding the relationship between these two variables and how they may impact each other.

2.

What does the notation {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3} mean?

The notation {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3} represents a set of all possible values for y and z, where the difference between them is equal to or greater than 3. This notation is commonly used in mathematics and allows for a clear and concise way to describe a set of values.

3.

Why is it important to examine if y and z are equal or not?

Examining the equality of y and z allows for a better understanding of the relationship between these two variables. If they are equal, it suggests that they may have a strong correlation or influence on each other. However, if they are not equal, it could indicate that there are other factors at play influencing their values.

4.

How is this examination of {(y,z)|y-z> or = 3} conducted?

This examination can be conducted through various methods, such as statistical analysis or experimental studies. It involves collecting data on the values of y and z and then comparing them to determine if they are equal or if there is a difference of at least 3 between them.

5.

What are the potential implications of the results from this examination?

The results from this examination can provide insights into the relationship between y and z and how they may impact each other. It can also help identify potential factors or variables that may be influencing their values. This information can be valuable in making decisions or predictions based on these variables.
