(a) Verify that the pair (M(R), +) form a group. (b) Verify that the pair (M(R)..) does NOT form a group. Suggest a modification to the underlying set M(R) (you may call this new set M(R)#), so that the pair (M(R)#, .) would form a group. (c) Define a set H(R) = {f = M(R): f(x) = Z, for each x ER}. Prove that the pair (H(R), +) is a group.

Question 3.
Let M(R) denote the set of all mappings from R to R. For mappings f,g: R → R, define
pointwise addition f+g of by (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x), Vx ER, and pointwise multiplication
by (f g)(x) = f(x) g(x), Vx R.
(a) Verify that the pair (M(R), +) form a group.
(b) Verify that the pair (M(R)..) does NOT form a group. Suggest a modification to the
underlying set M(R) (you may call this new set M(R) #), so that the pair (M(R)#, .)
would form a group.
(c) Define a set H(R) := {f = M(R): f(x) = Z, for each x ER}. Prove that the pair
(H(R), +) is a group.
