Question (1)

The relation f is defined by $\begin{array}{l}f(x) = {x^2}\quad \;0 \le x \le 3\\\;\quad \quad \; = 3x\;\quad 3 \le x \le 10\end{array}$ The relation g is defined by $\begin{array}{l}g(x) = {x^2}\quad \;0 \le x \le 2\\\quad \quad = 3x\;\quad 2 \le x \le 10\end{array}$ Show that f is a function and g is not a function.

Solution

The relation f is defined by $\begin{array}{l}f(x) = {x^2}\quad \;0 \le x \le 3\\\;\quad \quad \; = 3x\;\quad 3 \le x \le 10\end{array}$ For 0 ≤ x ≤ 3
f(3) = 32 = 9
3 ≤ x ≤ 10, then f(x) = 3x.
f(3) = 3(3) = 9
So f(3) has unique value .
So f is a funvction.
The relation g is defined by $\begin{array}{l}g(x) = {x^2}\quad \;0 \le x \le 2\\\quad \quad = 3x\;\quad 2 \le x \le 10\end{array}$ For 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
g(2) = 22 = 4
And for 2 ≤ x ≤ 10, then g(x) = 3x.
g(2) = 3(2) = 6
So g(2) has not unique value .
So g is not a funvction.

Question (2)

If f(x) = x2 find.$\frac{{f(1.1) - f(1)}}{{1.1 - 1}}$

Solution

f(x) = x2 $\frac{{f(1.1) - f(1)}}{{1.1 - 1}}$ $= \frac{{{{\left( {1.1} \right)}^2} - {1^2}}}{{1.1 - 1}}$ $= \frac{{1.21 - 1}}{{0.1}}$ $= \frac{{0.21}}{{0.1}} = 2.1$

Question (3)

Find the domain of the function $f(x) = \frac{{{x^2} + 2x + 1}}{{{x^2} - 8x + 12}}$

Solution

$f(x) = \frac{{{x^2} + 2x + 1}}{{{x^2} - 8x + 12}}$ $= \frac{{{{\left( {x + 1} \right)}^2}}}{{\left( {x - 2} \right)\left( {x - 6} \right)}}$ Function will be undefined if denominater becomes zero.
The denominator becomes zero.
(x - 2)(x - 6) = 0
x - 2 = 0 or x - 6 = 0
x = 2 or x = 6
So at x = 2 and x = 6 function will not be defined.
So domain of f is R - {2,6}.

Question (4)

Find the domain and the range of the real function f defined by $f(x) = \sqrt {x - 1}$

Solution

$f(x) = \sqrt {x - 1}$ We can not find the square root of negative numbers.
So x - 1 ≥ 0
So x ≥ 1
So Domain of f is [ 1, ∞ )
Since x - 1 ≥ 0
$\sqrt {x - 1} \ge 0$ So range of f = [ 0 , ∞)

Question (5)

Find the domain and the range of the real function f defined by f (x) = |x – 1|.

Solution

f (x) = |x – 1|.
x ∈ R, So domain of function = R
For all values of x , | x - 1 | ≥ 0
So range of function = R+ ∪ {0}

Question (6)

Let $f = \left\{ {\left( {x,\frac{{{x^2}}}{{1 + {x^2}}}} \right):x \in R} \right\}$ be a function from R into R. Determine the range of f.

Solution

Let f : R → R
So x ∈ R,
x2 ≥0
1 + x2 ≥ 1
${\frac{{{x^2}}}{{1 + {x^2}}} \ge 0}$ ${x^2} \le {x^2} + 1$ $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{x^2} + 1}} \le 1$ So range of f is [ 0,1)

Question (7)

Let f, g: R → R be defined, respectively by f(x) = x + 1, g(x) = 2x – 3. Find f + g, f – g and.f/g.

Solution

f : R → R and g: R → R
So domain of and g are R.
So Df ∩ Dg = R
So f+ g , f - g and f/ g can be calculated.
f + g = f(x) + g(x)
= x + 1 + 2x - 3
= 3x - 2
f - g = f(x) - g(x)
= ( x + 1 ) - ( 2x - 3 )
= -x + 4
f/ g is defined for other values of x other than g(x) = 0 .
f/g : R- {3/2) → R
$\frac{f}{g} = \frac{{f(x)}}{{g(x)}},g(x) \ne 0$ $= \frac{{x + 1}}{{2x - 3}},2x - 3 \ne 0$

Question (8)

Let f = {(1, 1), (2, 3), (0, –1), (–1, –3)} be a function from Z to Z defined by f(x) = ax + b, for some integers a, b. Determine a, b.

Solution

f : Z → Z
f(x) = ax + b,
f = {(1, 1), (2, 3), (0, –1), (–1, –3)} be a function
So (0, –1) will saisfy the f
∴ -1 = a(0) + b
∴ -1 = b
So (1, 1) is satisfy the function.
∴ 1 = a(1) + b
Replacing the value of b , we get,
1 = a + (- 1)
1 + 1 = a
2 = a
So the values of a = 2 and b = -1 .

Question (9)

Let R be a relation from N to N defined by R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ N and a = b2}. Are the following true?
(i) (a, a) ∈ R, for all a ∈ N
(ii) (a, b) ∈ R, implies (b, a) ∈ R
(iii) (a, b) ∈ R, (b, c) ∈ R implies (a, c) ∈ R.

Solution

(i) (a, a) ∈ R, for all a ∈ N
For all a ∈ N , a2 ≠ a
∴ statement is not true.
(ii) ( a, b) ∈ R,
→ a = b2
Let (2, 4 ) ∈ R.
theen ( 4, 2 )∉ R. as 2 is not a square of 4.
So the statement is not true.
(iii) (a, b) ∈ R, (b, c) ∈ R implies (a, c) ∈ R.
The statement is not true.
If (2, 4) ∈ R, and (4, 16) ∈ R
but ( 2, 16 ) ∉ R as 16 is not square of 2.

Question (10)

Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16} and f = {(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 1), (4, 5), (2, 11)}. Are the following true?
(i) f is a relation from A to B (ii) f is a function from A to B.

Solution

A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16} and f = {(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 1), (4, 5), (2, 11)}.
In f ( x , y ) X ∈ A and y ∈ B.
So it is a relation from A → B.
But as (1, 5) ∈ f and (4, 5) ∈ f
The relation is one to many.
So it is not a function.

Question (11)

Let f be the subset of Z × Z defined by f = {(ab, a + b): a, b ∈ Z}. Is f a function from Z to Z: justify your answer.

Solution

Let f be the subset of Z × Z defined by f = {(ab, a + b): a, b ∈ Z}.
Let us consider a = 0, b = 1.
f = ( 0(1), 0 + 1 ) = ( 0, 1 )
If a = 0 and b = 2, then f = (0, 2 )
So for a = 0 and different values of b we get ( ab , a+b) = ( 0, b)
So relation becomes one to many, so it is not function.

Question (12)

Let A = {9, 10, 11, 12, 13} and let f: A → N be defined by f(n) = the highest prime factor of n. Find the range of f.

Solution

A = {9, 10, 11, 12, 13}
f: A → N
f(n) = the highest prime factor of n.
f(9) = 3, f(10) = 5, f(11) = 11, f(12) = 3, f( 13) = 13.
So range of f = { 3, 5, 11, 13}
