    1) The value of 5 * 4 is 1, as the binary operation is a * b = a - b. 2) To find (2 θ 3) ∆ 4, first calculate 2 θ 3 = 2 * 3 - 2*2 = 3, then 3 ∆ 4 = 2*3 - 4^3 = -7. 3) The set W = {2, 4, 6} is closed under the binary operation * as defined by a * b = ab/2, since 2 * 4 = 4, 2 * 6 = 3, 4 * 6 = 6, and all results are elements in W.
