Let S be the set of all rational numbers in (0, 1). Then which of the following statements is/are TRUE ?
  • a)
    S is a closed subset of  R
  • b)
    S is not a closed subset of  R
  • c)
    S is an open subset of  R
  • d)
    Every x ∈ (0, 1)\S is a limit point of S.
Correct answer is option 'B,D'. Can you explain this answer?

Solution:

Statement a) S is a closed subset of R:
To determine if S is a closed subset of R, we need to consider its complement, which is the set of all irrational numbers and the numbers outside the interval (0, 1).

The set of irrational numbers is not closed since it contains numbers like √2 that are limit points but not contained within the set. Similar

Let A6 be the group of even permutations of 6 distinct symbols. Then the number of elements of order 6 in A6 is _______ .
    Correct answer is '0'. Can you explain this answer?

    Srishti Khanna answered
    Explanation:

    To find the number of elements of order 6 in A6, we need to consider the cycle decomposition of each element of A6.

    What is cycle decomposition?

    Cycle decomposition is a way of representing a permutation as a product of disjoint cycles. A cycle is a sequence of elements that are permuted cyclically, i.e., each element is replaced by the n
