The recursive definition given below defines a set S of strings over the alphabet {a, b}: Base case: λ ∈ S and a ∈ S Recursive rule: if x ∈ S then, xb ∈ S (Rule 1) xba ∈ S (Rule 2) This problem asks you to prove that the set S is exactly the set of strings over {a, b} which do not contain two or more consecutive a's. In other words, you will prove that x ∈ S if and only if x does not contain two consecutive a's. The two directions of the "if and only if" are proven separately. (a) Use structural induction to prove that if a string x ∈ S, then x does not have two or more consecutive a's.

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis. 3- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in part b?
