Problem 8

Decide whether the indicated operations of addition and multiplication are defined (closed) on the set, and give a ring structure. If a ring is not formed, tell why this is the case. If a ring is formed, state whether the ring is commutative, whether it has unity, and whether it is a field. $$ \mathrm{Z} \text { " with the usual addition and multiplication. } $$
