Question#1
Answer


Question#2
Answer.
M1: since x y is the absolute value of the real number x-y, so it is non-negative i.e. x y 0 > for all
x, y R e
( , ) 0 for all x,y R d x y x y = > e
M2:
( , ) 0 0 0 , , d x y x y x y x y x y R = = = = e
M3:
( , ) ( ) ( , ), , d x y x y x y y x d y x x y R = = = = e
M4:
( , )
( , ) ( , ) ( , ), , ,
d x z x z x y y z x y y z
d x z d x y d y z x y z R
= = + s +
s + e


Hence d is a metric on real line R.
Question#2
Answer
M1: Since r is a positive real number, and d is a metric on X, so ( , ) 0 ( , ) 0, , .
r
rd x y d x y x y X > > e
M2:
( , ) 0 ( , ) 0 ( , ) 0 ( , ) 0
r>0,d is metric
r
rd x y d x y rd x y d x y
x y
> = = =
=
M3: ( , ) ( , ) ( , ) ( , ) d is metric
r r
d x y rd x y rd y x d y x = = =

M4:
( , ) ( , ) ( , ) d is metric
( , ) ( , ) ( , ) r>0
( , ) ( , ) ( , ), , ,
r r r
d x z d x y d y z
rd x z rd x y rd y z
d x z d x y d y z x y z X
