PLEASE HELP with set theory

Hi,

Can anybody help out with the following problems: please
Sorry if it in the wrong forum

1. Prove that the following property holds

(a,b)=(a1,b1) if and only if a=a1 and b=b1

2. Are we justified in calling the partial function from X->Y and the total functions from X->Y sets, where X and Y are sets?

3. Show that for any sets X and Y, where Y has atleast 2 elements, that there canot be a 1 to 1 corrospondence between X and the set of functions (X->Y)

4. Let R be a realtion on a set X. We write Rop as the opposite or converse relation where Rop = {(y,x) | (x,y) belongs to R}}
Show that (R U Rop)* is an equivalance realtion and R U (Rop)* need not be an equivalance relation.


Thank you for any help at all

this doesn't look anything like advanced fields to me. I'll move it to a more appropriate forum ...
