Analyzing +4 | -1

Let

R

be the set of real numbers.
Statement-1:

A=\{(x, y) \in R \times R: y-x

is an integer

\}

is an equivalence relation on

R

.

Statement-2:

B=\{(x, y) \in R \times R: x=\alpha y

for some rational number

\alpha

} is an equivalence relation on

R

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1

Option A (Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1) is correct because both statements define equivalence relations, but the second statement doesn't explain the first.
