Example Questions

Example Question #1 : Ordered Field And Completeness Axioms

Identify the following property.

On the space  where  only one of the following statements holds true , or .

Possible Answers:

Transitive Property

Distributive Law

Multiplicative Property

Existence of Multiplicative Identity

Trichotomy Property

Correct answer:

Trichotomy Property

Explanation:

The real number system,  contains order axioms that show relations and properties of the system that add completeness to the ordered field algebraic laws.

The properties are as follows.

Trichotomy Property:

Given  only one of the following statements holds true , or .

Transitive Property:

For , and  where  and  then this implies .

Additive Property:

For , and  where  and  then this implies .

Multiplicative Properties:

For , and  where  and  then this implies  and   and  then this implies .

 

Therefore looking at the options the Trichotomy Property identifies the property in this particular question.
