Section – B

Answer the following questions in one sentence:

Question 1.
Give the necessary condition for defining a function.
The necessary condition for defining a function is that ‘domain and co-domain of the function should not be empty sets.’

Question 2.
f: A → B, A = {-3, -1, 1, 3};
B = {1, 0, 9}; f(x) = x2. Is f a function?
f: A → B, A = {- 3, -1, 1, 3};
B = {1, 0, 9}; f(x) = x2. Therefore, f is a function.

Question 3.
g: N → N, ‘subtract 2 from the elements of the domain’. Can this rule be called a function?
g : N → N, i.e., N = {1, 2, 3, …};
N = {1, 2, 3,…}. Therefore, ‘subtract 2 from the elements of the domain’ this rule cannot be called a function.

Question 4.
Define a one-one function in notations.
Suppose, f: A → B. If for any two different elements x1 and x2. f(x1) ≠ f(x2), then function f is called one-one function.

Question 5.
Define many-one function in notations.
Suppose, f: A → B. If for any two differents x1, x2 of domain A. f(x1) = f(x2), then function / is called many-one function.

Question 6.

f:{1, 2, 3} → N and g:{2, 3, 4} → 1. Domain of f and g are not equal. Therefore, f and g are not equal functions.

Question 8.
f : Z → N, f(t) = t2 + 1, t ∈ Z. Determine the type of function f.
f: Z → N.
∴ Z = {…-3,-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,…} and N = {1, 2, 3, 4, …}
f(t) = t2 + 1, t ∈ Z
∴ f(- 3) = 9 + 1 = 10, f(3) = 9 + 1 = 10, f(- 2) = 4 + 1 = 5 f(2) = 4 + 1 = 5
Here, for two different elements of domain A, their images are same in co-domain. Therefore, function / is many-one function.

Question 9.
f: N → N, f(t) = t2 + 1, t ∈ N. Determine the type of function f.
f: N → N. ∴ N = {1, 2, 3, 4,…} and
N = {1, 2, 3, 4, …}
f(t) = t2 + 1, t ∈ N
f(1)= 1 + 1 = 2,
f(2) = 22 + 1 = 5
Here, for two different elements of do-main

A, their images are different in co-domain. Therefore, function f is one-one function.

Question 10.

Question 2.
Define domain and co-domain of a function.
Domain of a function: Suppose, f: A → B, the set A is called domain of the function J. It is denoted by Df.
Co-domain of a function : Suppose, f: A → B, the set B is called the co-domain of the function f.

Question 3.
Define range of a function.
Suppose f: A → B. then a set of images or functional values of all the elements of set A is called range of function f It is denoted by f/.
Rf = {f(x) | x ∈ A).
The range of a function may be co-domain itself or a subset of co-domain.

Question 4.
g: A → N, A = {x| x ∈ N, 1 < x ≤ 4}; g(x) = x + 1. Find range of function g.
A = {x | x ∈ N, 1 < x ≤ 4}
A = {2, 3, 4} ⇒ Domain g [x] = x + 1
∴ g (2) = 2 + 1 = 3, g (3) = 3 + 1 = 4, g (4) = 4 + 1 = 5
Range of function Rf = {g (x) | x ∈ A}
= {g (2), g (3), g (4)} = {3, 4, 5}

Question 5.
k:X → Y, X = {t| t ∈ Z, -3 < t ≤ 3};
Y = {a| a ∈ N, 1 ≤ a≤ 20}; k(t) = t2+2.
State the type of function k.
k:X → Y
Domain X={t| t ∈ Z, -3 ≤ t ≤ 3)
= {-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3}

k (t) = t2 + 2
∴ k(- 3) = (-3)2 + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11,
k (3) = (3)2 + 2=11,
k (- 2) = (- 2)2 + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6,
k (2) = (2)2 + 2 = 6,
k(- 1) = (- 1)2 + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3,
k (1) = (1)2 + 2 = 3,
k (0) = 0 + 2 = 2
Co-domain Y = {a|a ∈ N ⇒ 1, a ≤ 20}
= {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, …, 18, 19, 20}

Here, for two different elements (-3, 3) of domain, their images in co-domain are k (- 3) = k (3) = 11. Therefore, function k is many one function.

Question 6.
h : A → B, A = {1, 2, 3},
B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, h (x) = x + 5. State the type of function h.
h : A → B
A = {1, 2, 3} and h (x) = x + 5
∴ h (1) = 1 + 5 = 6, h (2) = 2 + 5 = 7, h (3) = 3 + 5 = 8

B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
For the elements 1, 2, 3 of domain
h (1) ≠ h (2) ≠ h (3).
Therefore, function ft is one-one function.

Question 7.
If P : A → B, P(x) = 2x – 3 and Rf = {-2, -1, 0}, then find domain of the function.
P (x) = 2x – 3
Rf = {-2, – 1, 0}

Therefore, domain of the function = {$$\frac{1}{2}$$, 1, $$\frac{3}{2}$$}

Question 8.
If f(x) = 1 – $$\frac{1}{1-x^{2}}$$ x ∈ R – {-1, 1), then find f(2) – f(-2).

Question 9.
If domain of f(x) = $$\frac{x-3}{x+4}$$ is (0, 3, 6) then find its range.
f(x) = $$\frac{x-3}{x+4}$$, Domain = {0, 3, 6}
f(0) = $$\frac{0-3}{0+4}=-\frac{3}{4}$$
f(3) = $$\frac{3-3}{3+4}=\frac{0}{7}$$ = 0
f(6) = $$\frac{6-3}{6+4}=\frac{3}{10}$$

Range Rf = {f(x) | x ∈ Domain}
= {f(0), f(3), f(6)}

∴ Rf = {-$$\frac{3}{4}$$, 0, $$\frac{3}{10}$$}

Question 10.
If f(x) = $$\frac{x^{2}(x+1)^{2}}{4}$$ is a real function then find the value of f(3) -f(2).

Question 11.
If f:R → R and f(x) = x2 + 2x – 1, then state the type of function f.
f: R → R
f(x) = x2 + 2x – 1
Domain={… -2, -1. 0. 1, …}
Co-domain={… -1, -2, -1, 2,…}
Here, for two different elements -2 and 0 of domain, their Images are same In co-domain.
Therefore function f is many-one function.

Question 12.
If f(x) = $$\frac{2 x-4}{x+7}$$ is a real function then for which value of x the image is zero?
f(x) = $$\frac{2 x-4}{x+7}$$
Image = 0. Therefore, put f(x) = 0
0 = $$\frac{2 x-4}{x+7}$$
∴ 0 = 2x – 4 ∴ 4 = 2x
Therefore, x = 2, the Image is zero.

Question 13.
f:Z – {2} → Z, f(x) = $$\frac{x^{2}+x-6}{x-2}$$ State the type of the function.
f:Z – {2} → Z
∴ Domain = {……., -3, -2, 0, 1, 3, 4,….}

Here, for two different elements of domain, their Images are not same. Therefore, the given function is one-one function.

Question 14.
For a real function, f(x) = 6x3 – 5x + 15, find the value of f (O).
f(x) = 6x3 – 5x + 15
∴f(0) = 6 × 0 – 50 + 15
= 0 – 1 + 15 = 14
∴f(0)=14

Question 15.
If f(x) = x3 – 2x + $$\frac{1}{x}$$ is a real function then find the value of f(3) + f(-3).

Section – D

Answer the following questions as required:

Question 1.
For f:A → B, A = {10, 20, 30); B = (18, 48, 98, 128, 148); f(x) = 5x – 2; obtain domain, co-domain and range.
f: A → B, A = {10, 20, 30}
B = {18, 48. 98. 128. 148}
f(x) = 5x – 2
Domain: A = (10, 20, 30)
Co-domaln: B = {18, 48, 98, 128, 148}
Range:Rf ={f(x) | x ∈ A}
= {f(10), f(20), f(30)}

Now,f(10) = (5 × 10) – 2 = 50—2 = 48
f(20) = (5 × 20) – 2 = 100 – 2=98
f(30) = (5 × 30) – 2 = (150 – 2) = 148
∴ Range Rf = (48, 98, 148)

Question 2.
Obtain demain, co-domain and range for

Question 3.
If f:R – {0} → R, f(x) = $$\frac{1}{x}\left(1+\frac{1}{x}\right)$$ – 1 then find the value of f(-1), f(-2) and f($$\frac{1}{2}$$)

Question 4.
For the function f:A → B, f(x) = 4x – 3;
Rf = (9, 13, 17, 25}, then find Df.
f:A → B, f(x) = 4x – 3, Rf = {9 13, 17, 25}
f(x) = 9 ∴9 = 4x – 3 ∴ 12 = 4x ∴x = 3
f(x) = 13 ∴13 = 4x-3 ∴16 = 4x ∴x = 4
f(x) = 17 ∴17 = 4x – 3 ∴ 20 = 4x ∴x = 5
f(x) = 25 ∴25 = 4x – 3 ∴ 28 = 4x ∴ x = 7
Hence, Df = {3, 4, 5, 7),

Question 5.
For the real function f (x) = 2x2 – 5x + 4, find the value of x, for which f (3x) – 3f(x) + 5 = 0.
f(x) = 2x2 – 5x + 4 Now, f(3x) – 3f(x) + 5 = 0
∴ 2 (3x)2 – 5 (3x) + 4 – {3 (2x2 – 5x + 4)} + 5 = 0
∴ 2 (9x2) – 15x + 4- 6x2 + 15x- 12 + 5 = 0
∴ 18x2 – 6x2 – 15x + 15x + 4 – 12 + 5 = 0
∴ 12x2 – 3 = 0
∴ 12x2 = 3
∴ x2 = $$\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}=\left(\pm \frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}$$
∴ x = ± $$\frac{1}{2}$$
Hence, when x = ± $$\frac{1}{2}$$ then f(3x) – 3f(x) + 5 = 0.

Question 6.
If f: A → M, A = {x | x ∈ N, 1 ≤ x < 5} and M = {x | x ∈ N, 1 ≤ x ≤ 20} and f(x) = x2 + 1, then find the range of f.
f: A → M
A = {x | x ∈ N, 1 ≤ x < 5}
= {1, 2, 3, 4}
M = {x | x G N, 1 ≤ x ≤ 20}
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}
f(x) = x2 + 1

Range of f Rf= {f(x) | x ∈ A}
= {f(1), f(2), f(3), f(4)}

Now, f(x) = x2 + 1
∴ f(1) = (1)2 + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
f(2) = (2)2 + 1 = 4+ 1 = 5
f(3) = (3)2 + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10
f(4) = (4)2 + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17
Hence, Range of f Rf = {2, 5, 10, 17}

Question 7.
If f(x) = $$\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2}$$ where x ∈ Z – {2} then find the value of f(0) + f(1) – f(-2).
f(x) = $$\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2}=\frac{(x+2)(x-2)}{x-2}$$ = x + 2
∴ f(0) + f(1) – f(-2)
= (0 + 2 + (1 + 2) – (-2 + 2)
= 2 + 3 – 0
= 5

Question 8.
If the domain of a function f: A → N ∪ {0}; f(x) = $$\sqrt{x^{2}-16}$$ is A = {4, 5}, then find its range.
f(x) = $$\sqrt{x^{2}-16}$$; Domain = {4, 5}
Range Rf = {f(x) | x ∈ Domain}
= {f(4), f(5)}
Now, f(x) = $$\sqrt{x^{2}-16}$$
∴ f( 4) = $$\sqrt{(4)^{2}-16}$$
= $$\sqrt{16-16}$$ = 0
f(5) = $$\sqrt{(5)^{2}-16}$$
= $$\sqrt{25-16}=\sqrt{9}$$ = 3 (∵ x is positive.}
Hence, Range Rf = {0, 3}

Question 9.
If f (x) = x2 and g(x) = 5x – 6, where x ∈ {2, 3, 4}, check the equality of the functions.
f(x) = x2, g (x) = 5x – 6, Domain = (2, 3, 4} For fix) =x2, Range Ry= {f(2), f(3), f{4}}
= (4, 9, 16}
For g (x) = 5x – 6,
Range Rf = {g (2), g (3), g (4)}
∴ g(2) = 5 (2) – 6 = 10 – 6 = 4 ,
g (3) = 5(3) – 6 = 15 – 6 = 9
g (4) = 5 (4) – 6 = 20 – 6 = 14
Rf = {4, 9, 14}
Domains of the functions fix) and g (x) are same but their range are not same. Hence, the given functions are unequal functions.

Question 10.
If k : R → R, k(x) = x2 + 3x – 12; then ‘ determine the type of the function k.
k : R → R
∴ Domain = {…, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …}
k (x) = x2 + 3x – 12

∴ k (- 3) = (- 3)2 + 3 (- 3) – 12 = – 12
k (- 2) = (- 2)2 + 3 (- 2) – 12 = 4 – 6 – 12 = – 14
k (- 1) = (- 1 )2 + 3 (- 1) – 12 = 1 – 3 – 12 = -14
k(0) = 0 + 0 – 12 = – 12
k(1) = 1 + 3 – 12 = -8
k (2) = 4 + 12 – 12 = 4
∴ Co-domain = {…, -12, -14, -14, -12, -8, 4, …}
Here, for the elements – 3 and 0, – 2 and – 1 of domain, their images are same. Therefore function k is many-one function.

Question 11.
If f(x) = x (3x – 2), g (x) = x3 and x ∈ {0, 1, 2}; then prove that f and g are equal functions.
f(x) = x (3x – 2), x ∈ {0, 1, 2} ……………(1)
∴ Range Rf = {f(0), f(1), f(2)}
Now, f(0) = 0(3 × 0 – 2) = 0,
f(1) = 1 (3 × 1 – 2) = 1,
f(2) = 2 (3 × 2 – 2) = 2 (6-2) = 2×4 = 8
Range Rf = {0, 1, 8} …………….(2)
g (x) = x3, x ∈ {0, 1, 2} ………………..(3)

∴Range Rf ={g(0), g(1), g(2)}
Now, g (0) = 0, g(1) = 1. g(2) = 8

∴ Range Rf = {0,, 1, 8} …………….(4)
From (1) and (3) the domain off and g is equal.
From (2) and (4) the range of / and g is equal.
Hence, f and g are equal functions.

= (2 × 9) + $$\frac{1}{3}$$ + (2 × 9) – $$\frac{1}{3}$$ = 18 + 18 = 36

Question 14.
If f(x) = 15x3 – 4x2 + x + 10, x ∈ R; obtain the value of $$\frac{f(2)}{f(1)}$$

f(x)= $$\sqrt{5600-4 x}$$
f(4)= $$\sqrt{5600-4(1000)}$$
= $$\sqrt{5600-4000}$$
= $$\sqrt{1600}$$ =40
∴ 20 = $$\sqrt{5600-4 x}$$
