Exercise 2a
Question 1.

Define a function. What do you mean by the domain and range of a function? Give examples.


Answer:

Definition:A relation R from a set A to a set B is called a function if each element of A has a unique image in B.


It is denoted by the symbol f:A→B which reads ‘f’ is a function from A to B ‘f’ maps A to B.


Let f:A→B,then the set A is known as the domain of f & the set B is known as co - domain of f .The set of images of all the elements of A is known as the range of f.


Thus, Domain of f = {a|a ∈ A,(a,f(a)) ∈ f )


Range of f = {f(a) | a∈ A ,f(a) ∈ B }


Example: The domain of y = sin x is all values of x i.e. R , since there are no restrictions on the values for x. The range of y is betweeen −1 and 1. We could write this as −1 ≤ y ≤ 1.



Question 2.

Define each of the following:

(i) injective function

(ii) surjective function

(iii) bijective function

(iv) many - one function

(v) into function

Give an example of each type of functions.


Answer:

1)injective function


Definition: A function f: A → B is said to be a one - one function or injective mapping if different elements of A have different f images in B.


A function f is injective if and only if whenever f(x) = f(y), x = y.


Example: f(x) = x + 9 from the set of real number R to R is an injective function. When x = 3,then :f(x) = 12,when f(y) = 8,the value of y can only be 3,so x = y.




(ii) surjective function


Definition: If the function f:A→B is such that each element in B (co - domain) is the ‘f’ image of atleast one element in A , then we say that f is a function of A ‘onto’ B .Thus f: A→B is surjective if, for all b∈B, there are some a∈A such that f(a) = b.


Example: The function f(x) = 2x from the set of natural numbers N to the set of non negative even numbers is a surjective function.


(iii) bijective function


Definition: A function f (from set A to B) is bijective if, for every y in B, there is exactly one x in A such that f(x) = y.Alternatively, f is bijective if it is a one - to - one correspondence between those sets, in other words, both injective and surjective.


Example: If f(x) = x2,from the set of positive real numbers to positive real numbers is both injective and surjective.Thus it is a bijective function.


(iv)many - one function


Defintion : A function f: A→B is said to be a many one functions if two or more elements of A have the same f image in B.


trigonometric functions such as sinx are many - to - one since sinx = sin(2 + x) = sin(4 + x) and so one…


(v) into function


Definition: If f:A→B is such that there exists atleast one element in co - domain , which is not the image of any element in the domain , then f(x) is into.


Let f(x) = y = x – 1000


⇒ x = y + 1000 = g(y) (say)


Here g(y) is defined for each y∈ I , but g(y) ∉ N for y ≤ − 1000. Hence,f is into.



Question 3.

Give an example of a function which is

(i) one - one but not onto

(ii) one - one and onto

(iii) neither one - one nor onto

(iv) onto but not one - one.


Answer:

(i) one - one but not onto


f(x) = 6x


For One - One


f(x1) = 6x1


f(x2) = 6x2


put f(x1) = f(x2) we get


6x1 = 6x2


Hence, if f(x1) = f(x2) , x1 = x2


Function f is one - one


For Onto


f(x) = 6x


let f(x) = y ,such that y∈N


6x = y



If y = 1


x =


which is not possible as x∈N


Hence, f is not onto.


(ii) one - one and onto


f(x) = x5


⇒y = x5



Since the lines do not cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) is one - one.


The range of f(x) = ( - ∞,∞) = R(Codomain)


∴f(x) is onto


∴f(x) is one - one and onto.


(iii) neither one - one nor onto


f(x) = x2


for one one:


f(x1) = (x1)2


f(x2) = (x2)2


f(x1) = f(x2)


⇒(x1)2 = (x2)2


⇒x1 = x2 or x1 = - x2


Since x1 does not have a unique image it is not one - one


For onto


f(x) = y


such that y∈R


x2 = y


⇒x =


If y is negative under root of a negative number is not real


Hence,f(x) is not onto.


∴f(x) is neither onto nor one - one


(iv) onto but not one - one.


Consider a function f:Z→N such that f(x) = |x|.


Since the Z maps to every single element in N twice, this function is onto but not one - one.


Z - integers


N - natural numbers.



Question 4.

Let f : R → R be defined by



Find (i) f(2) (ii) f(4) (iii) f( - 1) (iv) f( - 3).


Answer:

i)f(2)


Since f(x) = x2 - 2 , when x = 2


∴ f(2) = (2)2 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2


∴f(2) = 2


ii)f(4)


Since f(x) = 3x - 1 , when x = 4


∴f(4) = (3×4) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11


∴f(4) = 11


iii)f( - 1)


Since f(x) = x2 - 2 , when x = - 1


∴ f( - 1) = ( - 1)2 - 2 = 1 - 2 = - 1


∴f( - 1) = - 1


iv)f( - 3)


Since f(x) = 2x + 3 , when x = - 3


∴f( - 3) = 2×( - 3) + 3 = - 6 + 3 = - 3


∴f( - 3) = - 3



Question 5.

Show that the function f: R → R : f(x) = 1 + x2 is many - one into.


Answer:

To show: f: R → R : f(x) = 1 + x2 is many - one into.


Proof:


f(x) = 1 + x2


⇒y = 1 + x2



Since the lines cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y therefore the function f(x) is many one.


The range of f(x) = [1,∞)≠R(Codomain)


∴f(x) is not onto


⇒f(x) is into


Hence, showed that f: R → R : f(x) = 1 + x2 is many - one into.



Question 6.

Show that the function f : R → R : f(x) = x4 is many - one and into.


Answer:

To show: f: R → R : f(x) = x4 is many - one into.


Proof:


f(x) = x4


⇒y = x4



Since the lines cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) is many ones.


The range of f(x) = [0,∞)≠R(Codomain)


∴f(x) is not onto


⇒f(x) is into


Hence, showed that f: R → R : f(x) = x4 is many - one into.



Question 7.

Show that the function f: R → R : f(x) = x5 is one - one and onto.


Answer:

To show: f: R → R : : f(x) = x5 is one - one and onto.


Proof:


f(x) = x5


⇒y = x5



Since the lines do not cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) is one - one.


The range of f(x) = ( - ∞,∞) = R(Codomain)


∴f(x) is onto


Hence, showed f: R → R : f(x) = x5 is one - one and onto.



Question 8.

Let and Show that each one of f and g is one - one but (f + g) is not one - one.


Answer:



Here in this range, the lines do not cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) = sinx is one - one.




in this range, the lines do not cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) = cosx is also one - one.


(f + g):[0,] →R = sinx + cosx



in this range the lines cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) = cosx + sinx is not one - one.


Hence,showed that each one of f and g is one - one but (f + g) is not one - one.



Question 9.

Show that the function

(i) f : N → N : f(x) = x2 is one - one into.

(ii) f : Z → Z : f(x) = x2 is many - one into


Answer:

(i) f : N → N : f(x) = x2 is one - one into.


f(x) = x2


⇒y = x2



Since the function f(x) is monotonically increasing from the domain N → N


∴f(x) is one –one


Range of f(x) = (0,∞)≠N(codomain)


∴f(x) is into


∴f : N → N : f(x) = x2 is one - one into.


(ii) f : Z → Z : f(x) = x2 is many - one into


f(x) = x2


⇒y = x2


in this range the lines cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) = x2 is many - one .


Range of f(x) = (0,∞)≠Z(codomain)


∴f(x) is into



∴ f : Z → Z : f(x) = x2 is many - one into



Question 10.

Show that the function

(i) f : N → N : f(x) = x3 is one - one into

(ii) f : Z → Z : f(x) = x3 is one - one into


Answer:

(i) f : N → N : f(x) = x3 is one - one into.


f(x) = x3


Since the function f(x) is monotonically increasing from the domain N → N


∴f(x) is one –one


Range of f(x) = ( - ∞,∞)≠N(codomain)


∴f(x) is into


∴f : N → N : f(x) = x2 is one - one into.



(ii) f : Z → Z : f(x) = x3 is one - one into


f(x) = x3


Since the function f(x) is monotonically increasing from the domain Z → Z


∴f(x) is one –one


Range of f(x) = ( - ∞,∞)≠Z(codomain)


∴f(x) is into


∴ f : Z → Z : f(x) = x3 is one - one into.




Question 11.

Show that the function f : R → R : f(x) = sin x is neither one - one nor onto.


Answer:

f(x) = sinx


y = sinx


Here in this range, the lines cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of y, therefore, the function f(x) = sinx is not one - one.



Range of f(x) = [ - 1,1]≠R(codomain)


∴f(x) is not onto.


Hence, showed that the function f : R → R : f(x) = sin x is neither one - one nor onto.



Question 12.

Prove that the function f : N → N : f(n) = (n2 + n + 1) is one - one but not onto.


Answer:

In the given range of N f(x) is monotonically increasing.


∴f(n) = n2 + n + 1 is one one.



But Range of f(n) = [0.75,∞)≠N(codomain)


Hence,f(n) is not onto.


Hence, proved that the function f : N → N : f(n) = (n2 + n + 1) is one - one but not onto.



Question 13.

Show that the function f: N → Z, defined by



is both one - one and onto.


Answer:


f(1) = 0


f(2) = - 1


f(3) = 1


f(4) = - 2


f(5) = 2


f(6) = - 3


Since at no different values of x we get same value of y ∴f(n) is one –one


And range of f(n) = Z = Z(codomain)


∴ the function f: N → Z, defined by



is both one - one and onto.



Question 14.

Find the domain and range of the function

F : R → R : f(x) = x2 + 1.


Answer:


Since the function f(x) can accept any values as per the given domain R, therefore, the domain of the function f(x) = x2 + 1 is R.


The minimum value of f(x) = 1


⇒Range of f(x) = [ - 1,∞]


i.e range (f) = {y ∈ R : y ≥ 1}


Ans: dom (f) = R and range (f) = {y ∈ R : y ≥ 1}



Question 15.

Which of the following relations are functions? Give reasons. In case of a function, find its domain and range.

(i) f = {( - 1, 2), (1, 8), (2, 11), (3, 14)}

(ii) g = {(1, 1), (1, - 1), (4, 2), (9, 3),
(16, 4)}

(iii) h = {(a, b), (b, c), (c, b), (d, c)}


Answer:

For a relation to be a function each element of 1st set should have different image in the second set(Range)


i) (i) f = {( - 1, 2), (1, 8), (2, 11), (3, 14)}


Here, each of the first set element has different image in second set.


∴f is a function whose domain = { - 1, 1, 2, 3} and range (f) = {2, 8, 11, 14}


(ii) g = {(1, 1), (1, - 1), (4, 2), (9, 3),
(16, 4)}


Here, some of the first set element has same image in second set.


∴ g is not a function.


(iii) h = {(a, b), (b, c), (c, b), (d, c)}


Here, each of the first set element has different image in second set.


∴h is a function whose domain = {a, b, c, d} and range (h) = {b, c}

We have,


f(x) = 2x


For, f(x1) = f(x2)

⇒ x1 = x2


When, f(x1) = f(x2) then x1 = x2


∴ f(x) is one-one


f(x) = 2x

⇒(x12 - x22) (x12 + x22) = 0


⇒ (x1 - x2) (x1 + x2) (x12 + x22) = 0


⇒ x1 = x2 or, x1 = -x2 or, x12 = -x22


We are getting more than one value of x1 (no unique image)


∴ f(x) is not one-one


f(x) = x4


Let f(x) = y such that

Given: f : R → R : f(x) = 1 + x2


We have,


f(x) = 1 + x2


For, f(x1) = f(x2)


⇒ 1 + x12 = 1 + x22


⇒ x12 = x22


⇒ x12 - x22 = 0


⇒ (x1 – x2) (x1 + x2) = 0


⇒ x1 = x2 or, x1 = –x2


Clearly x1 has more than one image


∴ f(x) is many-one


f(x) = 1 + x2


Let f(x) = y such that


⇒ y = 1 + x2

Answer:

To find: the function g : R → R : g o f = f o g = Ig


Formula used: (i) g o f = g(f(x))


(ii) f o g = f(g(x))


Given: f : R → R : f(x) = 10x + 7


We have,


f(x) = 10x + 7


Let f(x) = y


⇒ y = 10x + 7

Let where g: R → R


g o f = g(f(x)) = g(10x + 7)


= x


= Ig


f o g = f(g(x)) =

Question 20.

Let A = {1, 2, 3), B = {4, 5, 6, 7) and let f = {(1, 4), (2,5), (3, 6)} be a function from A to B. State whether f is one-one.


Answer:

To state: Whether f is one-one


Given: f = {(1, 4), (2,5), (3, 6)}


Here the function is defined from A → B


For a function to be one-one if the images of distinct elements of A under f are distinct


i.e. 1,2 and 3 must have a distinct image.


From f = {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)} we can see that 1, 2 and 3 have distinct image.


Therefore f is one-one


Ans) f is one-one

To Find: Inverse of f


[NOTE: Any functions is invertible if and only if it is bijective functions (i.e. one-one and onto)]


one-one function: A function f : A B is said to be a one-one function or injective mapping if different elements of A have different images in B. Thus for xl, x2 A & f(x1), f(x2) B, f(x1) = f(x2) x1= x2 or x1 x2f(x1) f(x2)


onto function: If range = co-domain then f(x) is onto functions.

(5 is mapped with 13)


So it is one-one functions.


Now elements of B are known as co-domain. Also, a range of a function is also the elements of B(by definition)


So it is onto functions.


Hence Proved that f is invertible.

A. one - one and onto

B. one - one and into

C. many - one and onto

D. many - one and into


Answer:

f(x) = 2x


For One - One


f(x1) = 2x1


f(x2) = 2x2


put f(x1) = f(x2) we get


2x1 = 2x2


Hence, if f(x1) = f(x2), x1 = x2


Function f is one - one


For Onto


f(x) = 2x


let f(x) = y, such that y∈N


2x = y



If y = 1


x =
