Determine the distance equivalence classes for the relation R is defined on ℤ by a R b if |a - 2| = |b - 2|. I had to prove it was an equivalence relation as well, but that part was not hard. Just want to know if the logic and presentation is sound for the last part: 8.48) A relation R is defined on ℤ by a R b if |a - 2| = |b - 2|. Prove that R...

Let M be an n x n matrix with each entry equal to either 0 or 1. Let mij denote the entry in row i and column j. A diagonal entry is one of the form mii for some i. Swapping rows i and j of the matrix M denotes the following action: we swap the values mik and mjk for k = 1,2, ... , n. Swapping two columns is defined analogously. We say that M is rearrangeable if...
