  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Let \({f}: {R} \rightarrow {R}\) be defined by \({f}({x})=2 {x}+6\) which is a bijective mapping, then \({f}^{-1}({x})\) is given by,

    Solution

    Let \({f}({x})={y}\)

    \(\therefore {f}^{-1}({y})={x}\)

    Now, \({y}=2 {x}+6\)

    \(2 {x}={y}-6\)

    \({x}=\frac{{y}-6}{2}\)

    \(\therefore {f}^{-1}({y})=\frac{{y}}{2}-3\)

    \({f}^{-1}({x})=\frac{{x}}{2}-3\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Let A = Q × Q and let * be a binary operation on A defined by (a, b) * (c, d) = (ac, b + ad) for all (a, b), (c, d) belongs to A then find identity element in A.

    Solution

    Let A = Q × Q and let * be a binary operation on A defined by (a, b) * (c, d) = (ac, b + ad) for all (a, b), (c, d) belongs to A.

    Let e = (a', b') be the identity element of A.

    \(\Rightarrow\) p * e = p = e * p

    Consider, p * e = p

    (a, b) * (a', b') = (a, b)

    \(\Rightarrow\) (aa', b + ab') = (a, b)

    \(\Rightarrow\) aa' = a, b + ab' = b

    \(\Rightarrow\) a' = 1, b' = 0

    \(\Rightarrow\) e = (1, 0) be the identity element of A.

    Therefore, A = Q × Q and let * be a binary operation on A defined by (a, b) * (c, d) = (ac, b + ad) for all (a, b), (c, d) belongs to A, then the identity element in A is (1, 0).

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Let \(\mathrm{L}\) denote the set of all straight lines in a plane. Let a relation \(\mathrm{R}\) be \(\mathrm{l R m}\) if \(\mathrm{l}\) is perpendicular to \(\mathrm{m \forall l, m \in L}\). Then \(\mathrm{R}\) is:

    Solution

    Let two lines \(\ell_{1}, \ell_{2} \in \mathrm{L}\)

    Now \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{2}\right) \in R\)

    Only when \(\ell_{1} \perp \ell_{2}\)

    1. For reflexivity:

    Let \(\ell_{1} \in \mathrm{L}\)

    But \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{1}\right) \notin R\)

    Since, no line is perpendicular to itself.

    Therefore, \(\mathrm{R}\) is not reflexive.

    2. For symmetric:

    Let, \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{2}\right) \in \mathrm{L}\)

    Now, if \(\ell_{1} \perp \ell_{2}\), then this implies that \(\ell_{2}\) is also perpendicular to \(\ell_{1}\).

    So, \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{2}\right) \in L\)

    Therefore, \(\mathrm{R}\) is symmetric.

    3. For Transitive:

    Let \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{2}\right) \in L\) and \(\left(\ell_{2}, \ell_{3}\right) \in L\)

    \(\ell_{1} \perp \ell_{2}\) and \(\ell_{2} \perp \ell_{3}\)

    \(\ell_{1}\) is not perpendicular to \(\ell_{3}\).

    \(\left(\ell_{1}, \ell_{3}\right) \notin \mathrm{R}\)

    So, R is not transitive.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    The identity element for the binary operation * defined on \(Q-\{0\}\) as: \(a{*} b=\frac{a b}{2}\), is:

    Solution

    It is given that:

    \(a * b=\frac{a b}{2} ; a, b \in Q-\{0\}\)

    Let the identity element for * be \(\mathrm{i}\), i.e.,

    \(\mathrm{a}\times \mathrm{i}=\mathrm{a}\)

    \(\therefore \mathrm{a} * \mathrm{i}=\frac{\mathrm{ai}}{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{a}=\frac{\mathrm{ai}}{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{i}=2\)

    Therefore, the identity element for the operation * is:

    \(\mathrm{i}={2}\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    The relation \(R=\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(2,3),(1,3)\}\) on a set \(A=\{1,2,3\}\) is:

    Solution

    Given set is:

    \(\mathrm{A}=\{1,2,3\}\)

    and, the relation is:

    \(R=\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(2,3),(1, 3)\}\)

    Let \(A\) be a set in which the relation \(R\) defined.

    1. \(R\) is said to be a reflexive relation, if:

    \((a, a) \in R\)

    2. \(R\) is said to be a symmetric relation, if:

    \((a, b) \in R \Rightarrow(b, a)\) \(\in \mathrm{R}\)

    3. \(R\) is said to be a transitive relation, if:

    \((a, b) \in R,(b, c) \in\) \(R \Rightarrow(a, c) \in R\)

    Since, \(1,2,3 \in A\) and \((1,1),(2,2),(3,3) \in R\)

    Therefore, \( \mathrm{R}\) is Reflexive.

    Now, \(1,2,3 \in \mathrm{R}\)

    \((1,2),(2,3) \in \mathrm{R} \Rightarrow(1,3) \in \mathrm{R}\)

    So, \( \mathrm{R}\) relates 1 to 2 and 2 to 3, then \(\mathrm{R}\) also relates 1 to 3.

    Therefore, \( \mathrm{R}\) is Transitive.

    Here, \(\mathrm{R}\) is not symmetric relation, as:

    \((\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}) \in \mathrm{R} \neq(\mathrm{b}, \mathrm{a}) \in \mathrm{R}\)

    Therefore,

    The relation, \(\mathrm{R}=\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(2,3),(1,3) \}\) on a set \(\mathrm{A}=\{1,2,3\}\) is reflexive, transitive but not symmetric.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Which of the following functions, \(f:R \rightarrow R\) is one-one?

    Solution

    Let us check for each option:

    (A)Given:

    \(f(x)=|x|, \forall x \in R\)

    As we know that,

    \(f(x)=|x|\)

    \(\Rightarrow f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-x, & x<0 \\ x, & x \geq 0\end{array}\right.\)

    So, \(f(-1)=-(-1)=1\) and \(f(1)=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow f(-1)=f(1)\), but \(-1 \neq 1\)

    \(\therefore\) The property, \(f\left(x_{1}\right)=f\left(x_{2}\right) \Rightarrow x_{1}=x_{2}\), does not hold true \(\forall x_{1}, x_{2} \in R\).

    Therefore, the function \(\mathrm{f}(x)=|x|, \forall x \in R\) is not an injective function.

    (B) Given:

    \(f(x)=x^{2}, \forall x \in R\)

    Let \(x_{1}=1\) and \(x_{2}=-1\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)=\mathrm{x}_{1}^{2}=1\)

    and, \(\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}\right)=\mathrm{x}_{2}^{2}=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)=\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}\right)\), but \(-1 \neq 1\)

    \(\therefore\) The property, \(f\left(x_{1}\right)=f\left(x_{2}\right)\)\( \Rightarrow x_{1}=x_{2}\), does not hold true \(\forall x_{1}, x_{2} \in R\).

    Therefore, the function \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{x}^{2}, \forall \mathrm{x} \in \mathrm{R}\) is not an injective function.

    (C) Given:

    \(f(x)=-x, \forall x \in R\)

    Let \(x_{1}\) and \(x_{2}\) be any two real numbers.

    \(\Rightarrow f\left(x_{1}\right)=-x_{1}\) and \(f\left(x_{2}\right)=-x_{2}\)

    If \(\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)=\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow-\mathrm{x}_{1}=-\mathrm{x}_{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{x}_{1}=\mathrm{x}_{2}\)

    \(\therefore\) The property, \(f\left(x_{1}\right)=f\left(x_{2}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow x_{1}=x_{2}\), holds true \(\forall x_{1}, x_{2} \in R\)

    Therefore, the function \(f(x)=-x, \forall x \in R\) is an injective function.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Let \(R\) be the set of real numbers and * be the binary operation defined on \(R\) as \(a^{*} b=a+b-a b \forall a, b \in R\). Then, the identity element with respect to the binary operation * is:

    Solution

    Given * is the binary operator defined on \(R\) such that,

    \(a^{*} b=a+b-a b \forall a, b \in R\)

    Let e be the identity element of \(R\) with respect to *.

    Now, as we know that, if e is an identity element of a non-empty set S with respect to a binary operation *.

    Then,

    a * e = e * a = a ∀ a ∈ S

    Let a ∈ R and because e is the identity element of R with respect to given operation *

    i.e., a * e = a = e * a ∀ a ∈ R

    Now,

    According to the definition of *, we have:

    a * e = a + e – ae = a ∀ a ∈ R ---(1)

    ∴ e – ae = 0

    e(1 – a) = 0

    e = 0 or (1 – a) = 0

    Therefore, 0 is the identity of R with respect to give operation *.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    The relation 'has the same father as' over the set of children is:

    Solution

    For a, b in the set of children, we say that a and b are related if a has the same father as b.

    Now, we will check for each property one by one.

    The relation is obviously reflexive as a has the same father as a.

    Therefore, aRa .... (1)

    If a has the same father as b, then that means both a and b have the same father.

    Therefore, b also has the same father as a. Thus, the relation is symmetric.

    Therefore, aRb implies bRa .... (2)

    Now, assume that aRb and bRc.

    That means a has the same father as b and b has the same father as c. This implies that a, b and c have the same father.

    Therefore, a has the same father as c. Thus, the relation is transitive.

    Therefore, aRb, bRc implies aRc .... (3)

    Thus, from (1), (2) and (3), we conclude that the given relation is an equivalence relation.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    If \(f(x+1)=x^{2}-3 x+2\), then what is \(f(x)\) equal to?

    Solution

    Given,

    \(f(x+1)=x^{2}-3 x+2\)

    \(=x^{2}-2 x-x+2\)

    \(=x(x-2)-(x-2)\)

    \(=(x-2)(x-1)\)

    \(=(x+1-3)(x+1-2)\)

    \(\therefore f(x)=(x-3)(x-2)\)

    \(=x^{2}-3 x-2 x+6\)

    \(=x^{2}-5 x+6\)

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    On the set of positive rationals, a binary operation * is defined by \(\mathbf{a} * \mathrm{b}=\frac{2 \mathrm{ab}}{5}\). If \(2{*} \mathrm{x}=3^{-1}\), then \(\mathrm{x}=?\)

    Solution

    Given condition:

    \(\mathrm{a}{*} \mathrm{b}=\frac{2 \mathrm{ab}}{5}\)

    Now,

    \(\Rightarrow 2{*} \mathrm{x}=3^{-1}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{2(2)(\mathrm{x})}{5}=\frac{1}{3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow 4 \mathrm{x}=\frac{5}{3}\)

    \(\mathrm{x}=\frac{5}{12}\)
