Expert Solution
Step 1

Elements of the group 2Z are {. . . . . ,-4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, . . . . }

So, cosets of 2Z/10Z are of the form a + 10Z, where a lies in 2Z.

Now, whenever a = 0 (mod 10),

      a + 10Z = 10Z.

Whenever a = 2 (mod 10), i.e., for a = -18, -8, 2, 12,. . . . ., 

     a + 10Z = 2 + 10Z.

Whenever a = 4 (mod 10), i.e., for a = -16, -6, 4, 14,. . . . ., 

     a + 10Z = 4 + 10Z.

Whenever a = 6 (mod 10), i.e., for a = -14, -4, 6, 16,. . . . ., 

     a + 10Z = 6 + 10Z.

Whenever a = 8 (mod 10), i.e., for a = -12, -2, 8, 18,. . . . ., 

     a + 10Z = 8 + 10Z.

So, only cosets of 2Z/10Z are 

    10Z, 2 + 10Z, 4 + 10Z, 6 + 10Z, 8 + 10Z.

So, statement (i) is correct.
