Exercise 2.3 Questions 5
Question (1)
Which of the following relations are functions? Give reasons. If it is a function, determine its domain and range.
(i) {(2, 1), (5, 1), (8, 1), (11, 1), (14, 1), (17, 1)}
(ii) {(2, 1), (4, 2), (6, 3), (8, 4), (10, 5), (12, 6), (14, 7)}
(iii) {(1, 3), (1, 5), (2, 5)}
Solution
(i) {(2, 1), (5, 1), (8, 1), (11, 1), (14, 1), (17, 1)}
The relation is many to one, so it is a function.
Domain = { 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17}
Range = {1}
(ii) (2, 1), (4, 2), (6, 3), (8, 4), (10, 5), (12, 6), (14, 7)}
As the relation is one to one, it is a function.
Domain = { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14}
Range = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
(iii) {(1, 3), (1, 5), (2, 5)}
The relation is many to many. it is not the function.
Question (2)
Find the domain and range of the following real function:
(i) f(x) = –|x| (ii)\[f(x) = \sqrt {9 - {x^2}} \]
Solution
(i) f(x) = –|x|
x ∈ R, so domain of f(x) is R.
Since x ∈ R, then |x| ≥ 0
∴ - |x| ≤ 0
So range is (- ∞ , 0]
(ii) \[f(x) = \sqrt {9 - {x^2}} \]
As we can not find square root of negative number ,
\[9 - {x^2} \ge 0\]
\[{x^2} \le 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow x \le 3\,or\;x \ge - 3\]
\[ \Rightarrow - 3 \le x \le 3\]
So domain of f(x) = { x : -3≤ x ≤ 3}
\[ - 3 \le x \le 3\]
\[ \Rightarrow 0 \le {x^2} \le 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow 0 \ge - {x^2} \ge - 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow 9 - 0 \ge 9 - {x^2} \ge 9 - 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow 9 \ge 9 - {x^2} \ge 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow \sqrt 9 \ge \sqrt {9 - {x^2}} \ge \sqrt 0 \]
\[0 \le f(x) \le 3\]
So the range of function f = { x : 0 ≤ x ≤3 }
Question (3)
A function f is defined by f(x) = 2x – 5. Write down the values of
(i) f(0), (ii) f(7), (iii) f(–3)
Solution
(i) f(0)
f(x) = 2x – 5.
f(0) = 2(0) - 5
= 0 - 5 = - 5
(ii) f(7)
f(x) = 2x – 5.
f(7) = 2 (7) - 5
= 14 - 5 = 9
(iii) f(-3)
f(x) = 2x – 5.
f(-3) = 2 ( - 3) - 5
= - 6 - 5 = -11
Question (4)
The function ‘t’ which maps temperature in degree Celsius into temperature in degree Fahrenheit is defined by.
\[t\left( C \right) = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\]
Find (i) t (0) (ii) t (28) (iii) t (–10) (iv) The value of C, when t(C) = 212
Solution
(i) t(0)
\[t\left( C \right) = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\]
\[t\left( 0 \right) = \frac{9}{5}\left( 0 \right) + 32\]
\[ = 0 + 32 = 32\]
(ii)t(28)
\[t\left( C \right) = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\]
\[t\left( {28} \right) = \frac{9}{5}\left( {28} \right) + 32\]
\[ = \frac{{252}}{5} + 32\]
\[ = \frac{{252 + 160}}{5}\]
\[ = \frac{{412}}{5}\]
(iii) t(-10)
\[t\left( C \right) = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\]
\[t\left( { - 10} \right) = \frac{9}{5}\left( { - 10} \right) + 32\]
\[ = - 18 + 32\]
\[ = 14\]
(iv) The value of C, when t(C) = 212
\[t\left( C \right) = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\]
\[212 = \frac{9}{5}\left( C \right) + 32\]
\[212 - 32 = \frac{9}{5}\left( C \right)\]
\[180 = \frac{9}{5}\left( C \right)\]
\[C = \frac{{180 \times 5}}{9} = 100\]
Question (5)
Find the range of each of the following functions.
(i) f(x) = 2 – 3x, x ∈ R, x > 0.
(ii) f(x) = x
2 + 2, x, is a real number.
(iii) f(x) = x, x is a real number
Solution
(i) f(x) = 2 – 3x, x ∈ R, x > 0.
x > 0
∴ -3x < 0 [ multiply by -3]
∴ 2 - 3x < 2 + 0 [ add 2 on both sides ]
∴ f(x) < 2
So range of f(x) is ( - ∞, 2)
(ii) f(x) = x
2 + 2, x, is a real number.
x ∈ R
∴ x
2 ≥ 0
∴ x
2 + 2 ≥ 0 + 2 [ adding 2]
∴ f(x) ≥ 2
So range of f(x) is [ 2, ∞)
(iii) f(x) = x, x is a real number
x ∈ R, f(x) = x ∈ R.
So range of f(x) is R.
