Question 4.
Given the triple < Z₂ x Z₁, B, D defined in terms of
the Cartesian product Z₂ Z5 of two sets of congruence classes, Z₂ and Zs, under operations
([k], [m])=([1], [n]) = ([k+l], [m+n])
and
([k], [m]) ([1], [n]) = ([kl], [mn])
(a) Prove that the first distributive law holds true.
(b) Hence prove that <Z₂ X Z₁, B, > is a ring.
(c) Is it a commutative ring? Justify your answer.
