Question 11 Mark
Let $R$ be a relation from $N$ to $N$ defined by $R=\left\{(a, b): a, b \in N\right.$ and $\left.a=b^2\right\}$. Check whether, $(a, b) \in R,(b, c) \in R$ implies $(a, c) \in R$ ? Justify your answer.
AnswerWe have, $R=\left\{(a, b): a, b \in N\right.$ and $\left.a=b^2\right\}$
As we see, $(9,3) \in R,(16,4) \in R$ because $3,4,9,16 \in N$ and $9=3^2$ and $16=4^2$
Now, $9 \neq 4^2=16$; therefore, $(9,4)$ does not belong to $N$
Hence, the statement is not true.

If A = {9, 10, 11, 12,13} and f : A $\rightarrow$ N be defined by f(n) = the highest prime factor of n, then find the range of f.
Answerf(n) = Highest prime factor of n
$\therefore$ $f(9) = 3, f(10) = 5$
$f(11 ) = 11, f(12) = 3$ and $f(13) = 13$
$\Rightarrow$ f = {$(9, 3), (10, 5), (11,11), (12, 3), (13, 13)$}
Hence, range of f = {3, 5,11,13}.

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)}. Is the given statement true? f is a function from A to B? Justify your answer.
AnswerHere it is given that: A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16} and f = {(1, 5),(2, 9),(3, 1),(4, 5),(2, 11)}
Now we have, A B = {(1, 1), (1, 5), (1, 9), (1, 11), (1, 16), (2, 1), (2, 5), (2, 9), (2, 15), (2, 16), (3, 1), (3, 5), (3, 9), (3, 11), (3, 15), (3, 16), (4, 1), (4, 5),(4, 9), (4, 11), (4, 15), (4, 16)
f is a function from A to B.
f = {(1, 5),(2, 9),(3, 1),(4, 5),(2, 11)}
Since we observe that the same first element i.e. 2 corresponds to two different images that is 9 and 11. Thus f is not a function from A to B.

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)}. Is the following given statement true? f is a relation from A to B. Justify your answer.
AnswerHere it is given that: A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16} and f = {(1, 5),(2, 9),(3, 1),(4, 5),(2, 11)}
Now, we have A $\times$ B = {(1, 1), (1, 5), (1, 9), (1, 11), (1, 16), (2, 1), (2, 5), (2, 9), (2, 15), (2, 16), (3, 1), (3, 5), (3, 9), (3, 11), (3, 15), (3, 16), (4, 1), (4, 5),(4, 9), (4, 11), (4, 15), (4, 16)}
Now f is a relation from A to B i.e,
f = {(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 1), (4, 5), (2, 11)}
A relation from a non empty set A to a non empty set B is a subset of the Cartesian product A $\times$ B.
And we can see f is a subset of A $\times$ B.
Hence f is a relation from A to B statement is true.

Find the domain and range of the real function: $\begin{equation} f(x)=\sqrt{9-x^{2}} \end{equation}$
AnswerHere the given function is: $\begin{equation} f(x)=\sqrt{9-x^{2}} \end{equation}$
Domain: These are the values of $x$ for which $f(x)$ is defined. From the given $f(x)$ we can say that, $f(x)$ should be real and for that, $9 - x^2 \geq 0 [$since a value less than $0$ will give an imaginary value$] (3 + x)(3 - x) \geq 0.$ Now there are two critical points, $x = +3$ and $x = -3$. Taking a value less than $-3$ and putting in the expression we get, $(3 - 5)(3 + 5) = -ve$ value and thus plotting these on number line we have

Since, $f(x)$ is defined for all real numbers that are greater than or equal to $-3$ and less than or equal to $3,$ the domain of $f(x)$ is $[-3, 3].$
Range: The values of $f(x)$ obtained by putting possible values of $x$. From the $f(x)$ we can see that, the values obtained will only be positive and can be any positive number less than $3$. Hence the range of $f(x) = [0, 3).$ View full question & answer→Question 151 Mark
Find the domain and range of the real function: $f(x) = - |x|$
AnswerHere the given function is:$ f(x) = -|x|$
As we know that,
$\begin{equation} |\mathrm{X}|=\left\{\begin{array}{l} {\mathrm{x}, \text { if } \mathrm{x} \geq 0} \\ {-\mathrm{x}, \text { if } \mathrm{x}<0} \end{array}\right. \end{equation}$
$\begin{equation} f(x)=-|x|=\left\{\begin{array}{l} {-x, \text { if } x \geq 0} \\ {x, \text { if } x<0} \end{array}\right. \end{equation}$
Domain: The values that can be put in the function to obtain real value.
For example $f(x) = x$, now we can put any value in place of $x$ and we will get a real value.
Hence, the domain of this function will be Real Numbers.
Range: The values that we obtain of the function after putting the value from the domain.
For Example: $f(x) = x + 1$,
now if we put $x = 0, f(x) = 1$ .
This $1$ is a value of Range that we obtained.
Since, $f(x)$ is defined for $x \in R$, the domain of $f$ is $R.$
It can be observed that the range of $f(x) = -|x|$ is all real numbers except positive real numbers.
Because we will always get a negative number when we put a value from a domain.
Thus, the range of function is $f(x)$ is $(-\infty, 0]$

To verify: $A \times(B \cap C)=(A \times B) \cap(A \times C)$
As we see, $\mathrm{B} \cap \mathrm{C}=\{1,2,3,4\} \cap\{5,6\}=\phi$
By definition if either of the two set P and Q is null set then $P \times Q$ will also be a null set. i.e. $P \times Q=\phi$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{A} \times(\mathrm{B} \cap \mathrm{C})=\phi$ ......(i)
Now, $(A \times B)$ = {(1, 1),(1, 2),(1, 3),(1, 4),(2, 1),(2, 2),(2, 3),(2, 4)}

Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Define a relation R from A to A by R = {(x, y) : y = x + 1 }. Write down the domain, codomain and range of R
AnswerWe have, R={(x,y):y=x+1}
Since A={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Therefore, R={(1,2),(2,3),(3,4),(4,5),(5,6)}
Therefore, domain ={1, 2, 3, 4, 5,}
Similarly, the range = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and the co-domain = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

If R is the set of all real numbers, what do the cartesian products R $\times$ R and R $\times$ R $\times$ R represent?
AnswerWe have, $$ R $\times$ R = {(x, y) : x, y $\in$ R}.
This represents the coordinates of all the points in two dimensional space and the cartesian product R $\times$ R $\times$ R represents the set R $\times$ R $\times$ R = {(x, y, z) : x, y, z $\in$ R} which represents the coordinates of all the points in three-dimensional space.

If P = {a, b, c} and Q = {r}, form the sets P $\times$ Q and Q $\times$ P. Are these two products equal?
AnswerBy the definition of the cartesian product, P $\times$ Q = {(a, r), (b, r), (c, r)} and Q $\times$ P = {(r, a), (r, b), (r, c)}
By the definition of equality of ordered pairs, the pair (a, r) is not equal to the pair (r, a).
Therefore, we conclude that P $\times$ Q $\ne$ Q $\times$ P
However, the number of elements in each set will be the same.

Let R be a relation from Q to Q defined by R = {(a, b): a,b $∈$ Q and a – b $∈$ Z}. Show that (a, b) $∈$ R and (b, c) $∈$ R implies that (a, c) $∈$ R
Answer(a, b) and (b, c) $∈$ R implies that a – b $∈$ Z. b – c $∈$ Z.
Therefore, a – c = (a – b) + (b – c) $∈$ Z.
Hence, (a, c) $∈$ R

Let R be a relation from Q to Q defined by R = {(a, b): a,b $∈$ Q and a – b $∈$ Z}. Show that (a, b) $∈$ R implies that (b, a) $∈$ R
Answer(a, b) $∈$ R implies that a – b $∈$ Z.
So, b – a $∈$ Z. [$\because\ m\in Z \Rightarrow-m\in Z$]
Hence, (b, a) $∈$ R

Let f(x) = $\sqrt x$ and g(x) = x be two functions defined over the set of non-negative real numbers. Find (f + g) (x), (f – g) (x), (fg) (x) and $\begin{equation} \left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) \end{equation}$.
AnswerWe have,
$(f + g) (x)=f(x)+g(x) = $$\sqrt x$ + x,
$(f – g) (x) =f(x)-g(x)= \sqrt x– x,$
$(fg) x = f(x).g(x)=$$ \sqrt{x}(x)=x^{\frac{3}{2}} $
$\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{\sqrt{x}}{x}=x^{-\frac{1}{2}}, x \neq 0 $

Let $f(x) = x^2 $ and $g(x) = 2x + 1$ be two real functions. Find $(f + g) (x), (f –g) (x), (fg) (x),$ $\begin{equation} \left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x) \end{equation}$
AnswerWe have,
$(f + g) (x) =f(x)+g(x)= x^2 + 2x + 1,$
$(f – g) (x)=f(x)-g(x) = x^2 – 2x – 1,$
$(fg) (x)=f(x)g(x) = x^2 (2x + 1) = 2x^3 + x^2,$
$\begin{equation} \left(\frac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{x^{2}}{2 x+1}, x \neq-\frac{1}{2} \end{equation}$
