1. Consider A = {4, 5, 6} and B = {3, 5, 7, 8}. Find if R = {(4, 3) (5, 7) (6, 8)} is a mapping from A to B and give reasons to support your answer?
Solution:
Since R = {(4, 3) (5, 7) (6, 8)}
No two ordered pairs have the same first components, R is Mapping from A to B.
2. Which of the following relations are functions?
(a) R₁ = {(4, 7) (5, 7) (6, 7) (7, 7)}
(b) R₂ = {(1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)}
(c) R₃ = {(a,b) (b, c) (c, d) (d, e)}
Solution:
R₃ is a function since each element in one set is associated with a unique element in the other set. Thus, it is a function.
3. Given f(x) = 2x+3 find
(i) f(1) (ii) f(-2) (iii) f(3)
Solution:
Given f(x) = 2x+3
(i) f(1) = 2*1+3 = 2+3 = 5
(ii) f(-2) = 2*(-2)+3 = -4+3 = -1
(iii) f(3) = 2*3+3 = 6+3 = 9
4. If f(x) = 4x – 3, x∈R and f(x) = 15 find the value of x?
Solution:
Given f(x) = 4x – 3
f(x) = 15
Equating both we can get the value of x as such
4x-3 = 15
4x = 15+3
4x = 18
x = 18/4
= 9/2
5. If A = {a, b, c, d} B = {x, y, z} Is R = {(a, x) (a, y) (a, z) (b, x) (b, y) (b, z) (c, x) (c, y) (d, z)} a function from A to B. Give reasons to support your answer?
Solution:
No, Relation R is not a function since the first components are repeated.
6. Which set of ordered pairs is not a function?
(a) (3, 2) (2, 6) (3, 5) (b) (4, 2) (7, 6) (2, 5)
(c) (1, 3) (3, 5) (4, 9) (d) (1, 2) (5, 2) (6, 5)
Solution:
(a) (3, 2) (2, 6) (3, 5)
The above option isn’t a function since the set of ordered pairs given has the repeated first component.
7. Recalling function notation we want x to be y and f(x) = 2x+3/2, find f(y)?
Solution:
f(x) = 2x+3/2
since we want function notation x to be y replace x with y in the given function
f(y) = (2y+3)/2
8. The Revenue of a Company is given by R(x) = X 2 +800X and Cost C(x) = 400X+150. Find the Profit gained by the Company R(x)- C(x)?
Solution:
R(x) = X 2 +800X
C(x) = 400X+150
Profit = R(x)- C(x)
= X 2 +800X – (400X+150)
= X 2 +800X – 400X – 150
= X 2 + 400X – 150
9. The function S(r) =4πr 2 gives the surface area of a sphere having radius r. What is the surface area of a sphere for radius 2?
Solution:
Given S(r) =4πr 2
Substitute 2 in place of the radius in the given function to find surface area of sphere with radius 2.
S(2) = 4.π.2 2
= 4π.4
= 16π
Surface Area of Sphere for Radius 2 is 16π.
10. Does the following arrow diagram represent a function?
Solution:
Every element in the first set is associated with only element in the other set. Thus, the relation F qualifies to be a function.
