Let A = {−5, −4, −3, −2, −1, 0, 1, 2, 3} and define a relation R on A as follows: For all (m, n) is in A, m R n ⇔ 5|(m2 − n2). It is a fact that R is an equivalence relation on A. Use set-roster notation to list the distinct equivalence classes of R. (Enter your answer as a comma-separated list of sets.)
