Let X = {a,b,c} and P(X) be the power set of X. A relation N is defined on P(X) as follows:
For all A, B elements of P(X), A N B <=> the number of elements in A is not equal to the number of elements in B.
Is this relation reflexive, symmetric, transitive, or none, and justify.
I believe that it is symmetric, not reflexive, and not transitive, but I'm not sure how I go about providing a proof for this.
Thank you for the help!
