Transcribed Image Text:**Understanding Ideals in Commutative Rings: A Proof Analysis**
Consider the proof below of the fact that \( I + a = I + b \) if and only if \( a - b \in I \) where \( R \) is a commutative ring with unity and \( I \) is an ideal. Identify which “+” signs are notation and which “+” signs are operations.
**(\(\Rightarrow\)) Assume \( I + a = I + b \).**
1. \( a \in I + a \)
\(\therefore a \in I + b\)
2. \(\therefore a = i + b\) for some \( i \in I \)
3. \(\therefore i = a - b\)
4. \(\therefore a - b \in I\)
**(\(\Leftarrow\)) Assume \( a - b \in I\).**
Assume \( x \in I + a \).
1. \(\therefore x = i + a\) for some \( i \in I \)
2. \(\therefore x = i + a + (-b + b)\)
3. \(\therefore x = (i + a - b) + b\)
4. \(\therefore x \in I + b\)
5. \(\therefore I + a \subseteq I + b\)
Assume \( x \in I + b\).
1. \(\therefore x = i + b\) for some \( i \in I \)
2. \(\therefore x = i + b + (-a + a)\)
3. \(\therefore x = (i + b - a) + a\)
4. \(\therefore x \in I + a\)
5. \(\therefore I + b \subseteq I + a\)
Thus, \( I + a = I + b \).
Consider the proof above and justify each claim.
---
This proof carefully uses properties of ideals in a commutative ring to show equivalences and membership in different sets defined by operations involving elements of the ring.
