Question:

Let \[ A = \{-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3\} \] and \(R\) be a relation on \(A\) defined by \[ x R y \;\;\text{if and only if}\;\; 2x - y \in \{0,1\}. \] Let \(l\) be the number of elements in \(R\). Let \(m\) and \(n\) be the minimum number of elements required to be added in \(R\) to make it reflexive and symmetric relations, respectively. Then \(l+m+n\) is equal to:
  • A. 17
  • B. 18
  • C. 15
  • D. 16
