Solution

Given that, R={(x,y):xN,yN,2x+y=41}.
Domain={1,2,3,....,20}
Range ={1,3,5,7,....39}

R={(1,39),(2,37),(3,35),....(19,3),(20,1)}
R is not reflexive as (2,2)/R
i.e. 2×2+241

As (1,39)R but (39,1)/R
So, R is not symmetric

As (11,19)R,(19,3)R but(11,3)/R

Hence, R is neither reflexive. nor symmetric and nor transitive.
