Let R be a relation on a set that is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive?...

Let R be a relation on a set that is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive? Let R(x) = {y : x R y}. [Note that R(x) is the same as x / R except that R is not an equivalence relation in this case.] Does the set A = {R(x) : x ∈ A} always/sometimes/never form a partition of A? Prove that your answer is correct. Do not prove by examples.

1)Let S be the set of all students at a college. Define a relation on the set S by the rule that two people are related if they live less than 2 miles apart. Is this relation an equivalence relation on S? Justify your answer. 2) Define another relation on the set S from problem 5 by defining two people as related if they have the same classification (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student). Is this an equivalence relation...
