consider the group $mathbb{Z}^2 ={(a,b)| a,b in mathbb{Z} }$ under component wise addition.



then which of the following is a subgroup of $mathbb{Z}^2$



$a)$ ${(a,b) in mathbb{Z}^2 | ab=0}$



$b)$ ${(a,b) in mathbb{Z}^2 | 3a +2b=15}$



$c)$ ${(a,b) in mathbb{Z}^2 |text{7 divides ab}}$



$d)$ ${(a,b) in mathbb{Z}^2 |text{2 divides a and 3 divides b}}$



My attempts :



I know that under component wise addition will be $(a,b) + (a,b)= (2a,2b)$



Here $2$ is Divide $a$. Now i can not proceed further



Any hints/solution will be appreciated



thanks u

    Do you know how to check/prove that a subset of a group is a subgroup?

            Probability when a professor distributes a quiz and homework assignment to a class of n students.

            Image
            0 0 $begingroup$ Need help with this problem. Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
