The corner points of the unbounded feasible region are and A(6, 0) and B (0,3)
We observe the region 𝑥 + 2𝑦 < 6 have no points in common with the
unbounded feasible region. Hence the minimum value of Z=6 occurs at 2 points. 1

Reflexive: 𝑎 + 𝑎 = 2𝑎, 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝑖𝑠 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑖𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑏𝑦 2, ∀𝑎 ∈ 𝑍 ⇒ (𝑎, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅, , ∀𝑎 ∈ 𝑍.

Therefore, R is reflexive. 1
Symmetric:𝑙𝑒𝑡 (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 (𝑎 + 𝑏) ⇒ 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 (𝑏 + 𝑎) ⇒ (𝑏, 𝑎) ∈

ThereforeR is symmetric 1
1
Transitive:𝐿𝑒𝑡 (𝑎, 𝑏), (𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 (𝑎 + 𝑏)𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏 + 𝑐) 𝑏𝑜𝑡ℎ 2
⇒ 𝑎 + 𝑏 = 2𝑚, 𝑏 + 𝑐 = 2𝑛
⇒ 𝑎 + 2𝑏 + 𝑐 = 2𝑚 + 2𝑛
∴ 𝑎 + 𝑐 = 2(𝑚 + 𝑛 − 𝑏)
∴ 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 (𝑎 + 𝑐) 1
Therefore R is transitive. 1

Hence, R is an equivalence relation.
