How do I prove the following statements: (a) For all a, b, c ∈ Z, if a < b, then a + c < b + c.

Question

How do I prove the following statements:

(a) For all a, b, c ∈ Z, if a < b, then a + c < b + c.
(b) For all integers a, b, if 0 < a and a < b, then a^2<b^2
(c) 0 < 1

Using these rules:

● (O1) If a ∈ Z, then exactly one of the following is true: 0 < a, a = 0, 0 > a.

● (O2) For all a, b ∈ Z, if 0 < a and 0 < b, then 0 < a + b.

● (O3) For all a, b ∈ Z, if 0 < a and 0 < b, then 0 < a ⋅ b.

● (O4) for all a, b ∈ Z, a < b exactly when 0 < b − a.
