Which of the following are groups? For those which are not groups, explain why not (it is enough to find one axiom that fails). For those which are, state the identity and inverses: Q under ×, {q∈Q:q>0} under ×, {q ∈ Q : q > 0} under division, {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} under × mod 8, {1,3,5,7} under × mod 8, {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12} under × mod 14, The set {0,1,2,3,4,5} under the operation x ◦ y = |x + y − 5|.
