1. ## Equivalence relation problem

2. let ~ be an equivalence relation on Z such n~n+5 and n~n+8. prove that n~m for all n,m in Z.
Can you show what work you have done thus far on these?
We cannot help if we don't know where you have trouble.

3. For part 1 i know that i need to show that it is reflexive, symmetric and transitive to show that it is an equivalence relation. But i'm not sure how to go about doing that.
