Question 111 Mark
If the binary operation $^{\ast}$ on the set of integers Z, is defined by $a^{\ast} b = a + 3b^{2},$ then find the value of $2^{\ast} 4.$
Answer
Given $a^{\ast} b = a + 3b^{2} $ $ \forall a,b \in z$$\therefore 2^{\ast} 4 = 2 + 3 \times 4^{2} = 2 + 48 = 50.$

Question 121 Mark
If a * b denotes the larger of ‘a’ and ‘b’ and if a o b = (a * b) + 3, then write the value of (5) o (10), where * and o are binary operations.
Answer
a o b = (a * b) + 3
5 o 10 = (5 * 10) + 3
= 50 + 3 = 53.

Question 131 Mark
If f(x) = x + 1, find $\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{fof})(\text{x}).$
Answer
Given: f(x) = x + 1
fof(x) = (x + 1) + 1 = x + 2
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{fof})(\text{x})$
$=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}+2)$

Question 141 Mark
If $\text{f(x)}=\text{x}+7$ and $\text{g(x)}=\text{x}-7,\ \text{x}\in\text{R},$ then find $=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{fog})(\text{x}).$
Answer
Given: f(x) = x + 7
g(x) = x - 7
(fog)(x) = f(g(x))
= f(x - 7)
= (x - 7) + 7
= x
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{fof})(\text{x})$
$=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})=1$

Question 171 Mark
Find which of the binary operations are commutative and which are associative.
State whether the following statements are true or false. Justify
For an arbitrary binary operation * on a set N, $\text{a}*\text{a}=\text{a}\ \forall\text{a}\in\text{N}.$
Answer
* being a binary operation on N, is defined as $\text{a}*\text{a}=\text{a}\ \forall\text{a}\in\text{N}.$
Hence operation * is not defined, therefore, the given statement is false.

Question 181 Mark
Let * be the binary operation on N given by a * b = L.C.M. of a and b. Find:
Is * associative?
Answer
a * (b * c) = a * (L.C.M. of b and c) = L.C.M. of (a and L.C.M. of b and c) = L.C.M. of a, b and c.
Similarly, (a * b) * c = L.C.M. of a, b and c
Thus, a * (b * c) = (a * b) * c
Therefore, the operation is associative.

Question 191 Mark
Determine whether or not each of the definition of $*$ given below gives a binary operation. In the event that $*$ is not a binary operation, give justification for this.
On $Z^+$, define $*$ by $a * b = ab$
Answer
on $Z^+ = {1, 2, 3,.....}, a * b = ab$
Let $a = 2, b = 4$
$\therefore\ \text{a}*\text{b}=2\times4=8\in\text{Z}^{+}$
Therefore, operation $*$ is a binary operation on $Z^+.$

Question 201 Mark
Let L be the set of all lines in XY plane and R be the relation in L defined as $R$ = {$(L_1, L_2): L_1$ is parallel to $L_2$}. Show that R is an equivalence relation. Find the set of all lines related to the line $y = 2x + 4$.
Answer
It is given that the relation L defined as
$R=\left\{\left(L_1, L_2\right): L_1 \text { is parallel to } L_2\right\}$
$R$ is reflexive as any line $L_1$ is parallel to itself
$\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{L}_1, \mathrm{~L}_2\right) \in \mathbf{R}$
Now, Let $\left(\mathrm{L}_1, \mathrm{~L}_2\right) \in \mathrm{R}$
$\Rightarrow L_1$ is parallel to $L_2$
$\Rightarrow L_2$ is parallel to $L_1$
$\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{L}_2, \mathrm{~L}_1\right) \in \mathbf{R}$
Therefore, R is symmetric.
Now, Let $\left(\mathrm{L}_1, \mathrm{~L}_2\right),\left(\mathrm{L}_2, \mathrm{~L}_3\right) \in \mathrm{R}$
$\Rightarrow L_1$ is parallel to $L_2$. Also $L_2$ is parallel to $L_3$
$\Rightarrow L_1$ is parallel to $L_3$.
$\Rightarrow(\text{L}_1,\text{L}_3)\in\text{R}$
Therefore, R is transitive.
Therefore, R is an equivalence relation.
The set of all lines related to the line y = 2x + 4 is the set of all lines that are parallel to the line y = 2x + 4
Slope of the line y = 2x + 4 is m = 2
We know that parallel lines have the same slopes.
The line parallel to the given line is of the form y = 2x + c where, $\text{c}\in\text{R}.$
Therefore, the set of all lines related to the given line by y = 2x + c, where $\text{c}\in\text{R}.$

Question 271 Mark
Determine whether or not each of the definition of $*$ given below gives a binary operation. In the event that $*$ is not a binary operation, give justification for this.
On $R,$ define $*$ by $a * b = ab^2$
Answer
on $R($set of real numbers$) a * b = ab$
Let $a = 5.2, b = 3$
$\therefore\ \text{a}*\text{b}=5.2(3)^2=46.8\in\text{R}$
Therefore, operation $*$ is a binary operation on $R.$

Question 301 Mark
Determine whether or not each of the definition of $*$ given below gives a binary operation. In the event that $*$ is not a binary operation, give justification for this.
On $Z^+,$ define $*$ by $a * b = a - b$
Answer
on $Z^+ = \{1, 2, 3,.....\}, a * b = a - b$
Let $a = 1, b = 3$
$\therefore\ \text{a}*\text{b}=1-3=-2\notin\text{Z}^{+}$
Therefore, operation $*$ is not a binary operation on $Z^+.$
