Show that the binary operation * on Z...

Show that the binary operation * on `Z` defined by `a*b=3a+7b` is not commutative.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

* is defined by `a`*`b=3a+7b` on the set `Z`
Then we have to prove that * is not commutative.
Now let `a,b in Z`
Then
`implies a`*`b = 3a +7b`
`b`*`a = 3b + 7a`
`a`*`b!=b`*`a`
