AI Generated Solution

To find the equivalence class \([0]\) under the equivalence relation \(R\) defined on the set \(A = \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}\) by \(R = \{(a, b) : 2 \text{ divides } (a - b)\}\), we need to determine which elements of \(A\) are related to \(0\) according to the relation \(R\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Relation**: The relation \(R\) states that \(a\) is related to \(b\) if \(2\) divides \(a - b\). This means that the difference \(a - b\) must be an even number. 2. **Finding the Equivalence Class**: The equivalence class \([0]\) consists of all elements \(a \in A\) such that \(2\) divides \(a - 0\). This simplifies to checking which elements \(a\) in \(A\) are even, since \(a - 0 = a\). ...
