Problem 2.1: Which of the following are groups? Why?
(a) R under addition
(b) The set 3Z of integers that are multiples of 3, under addition.
(c) R (0) under the operation ab= lab).
(d) The sel {1,-1) under multiplication
(e) The subset of Q consisting of all rational numbers with rational square roots, under multiplication.
(f) The set of all pairs (z,y) of real numbers, under the operation (x,y) (z, w) = (x+z₁y-w).
(g) The set of all pairs (z,y) of real numbers with y 0, under the operation (z,y) (2, w) = (x+z, yw).
(h) R {1}), under the operation a+b=a+b-ab.
(i) Z, under the operation ab=a+b=1.
