Chapter 2.1, Problem 5E

Suppose that ( A , * ) is an algebraic system and * is associative on A.

  1. Prove that if a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , and a 4 are in A, then ( a 1 * a 2 ) * ( a 3 * a 4 ) = a 1 * ( ( a 2 * a 3 ) * a 4 ) .
  2. Use complete induction to prove that any product of n elements a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , . . . , a n in that order is equal to the left-associated product ( . . . ( ( a 1 * a 2 ) * a 3 ) . . ) * a n . Thus, the product of n elements is alwaysthe same, no matter how they are grouped by parentheses, as long as theorder of the factors is not changed.
