Question 15 Marks
The function $f$ and $g$ are defined by $f(x)=6 x+8 ; g(x)=\frac{x-2}{3}$Calculate the value of $\operatorname{gg}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$
Answer
$\operatorname{gg}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)= g \left[ g \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right]$
$ = g \left[\frac{1}{2}-2 \div 3\right]$
$ = g \left[\frac{1-4}{2} \div 3\right]$
$= g \left[\frac{-3}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}\right] $
$= g \left[-\frac{1}{2}\right] $
$ =\left[-\frac{1}{2}-2 \div 3\right] $
$ =\left[\frac{-1-4}{2} \div 3\right]$
$=\left[\frac{-5}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}\right] $
$ \operatorname{gg}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=-\frac{5}{6}$

Question 25 Marks
If $f(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+1}, x \neq-1$ Show that $f(f(x))=-\frac{1}{x}$, Provided $x \neq 0$
Answer
$ f ( x )=\frac{x-1}{x+1}, x \neq-1$
$ =\left[\frac{x-1}{x+1}-1 \div \frac{x-1}{x+1}+1\right]$
$ =\left[\frac{x-1-(x+1)}{x+1} \div \frac{x-1+x+1}{x+1}\right]$
$ =\left[\frac{x-1-x-1}{x+1}\right] \div \frac{2 x}{x+1} $
$=\frac{-2}{x+1} \times \frac{(x+1)}{2 x} $
$=-\frac{2}{2 x} $
$=-\frac{1}{x} $
$ f [ f ( x )]=-\frac{1}{x}$

Let f = {(–1, 3), (0, –1), (2, –9)} be a linear function from Z into Z. Find f(x)
Answer
The linear equation is f(x) = ax + b f(– 1) = 3 a(– 1) + b = 3 –a + b = 3 ….(1) f(0) = – 1 a(0) + b = – 1 0 + b = – 1 b = – 1 Substitute the value of b = – 1 in (1) –a – 1 = 3 –a = 3 + 1 –a = 4 a = – 4 ∴ The linear equation is – 4(x) – 1 = – 4x – 1 or – (4x + 1)

=g(h(x))=g(3 x-5)=(3 x-5)^2=9 x^2-30 x+ 25$
$fo ( goh )= f \left(9 x ^2-30 x +25\right)=9 x ^2-30 x +25-4=9 x ^2-30 x +21 \ldots$ (2) (1) $=(2)$ L.H.S.

$g o f=(2 x+1)^2$
$(2 x+1)^2 \in N$
$\text { Range }=\left\{\frac{y}{y}=2 x^2+1, x \in N\right\}$
$\left\{\frac{y}{y}=(2 x+1)^2, x \in N\right)$

Question 115 Marks
If $f(x)=2 x-1, g(x)=\frac{x+1}{2}$, show that fog = gof =x
Answer
$f(x)=2 x-1, g(x)=\frac{x+1}{2} $
$ fog=f[g(x)]$
$=f\left[\frac{x+1}{2}\right]-1$
$ =2\left[\frac{x+1}{2}\right]-1$
$ =x+1-1$
$ =x $
$ gof=g[f(x)] $
$ =x $
$ =g(2 x-1) $
$ =\frac{2 x-1+1}{2}$
$ =\frac{2 x}{2} $
$=x=g \circ f=x $
$ =x$
Hence it is proved.

Question 125 Marks
Let A = {–1, 1} and B = {0, 2}. If the function f: A → B defined by f(x) = ax + b is an onto function? Find a and b
Answer
$A=\{-1,1\} ; B=\{0,2\}$
$f(x)=a x+b$
$f(-1)=a(-1)+b$
$0=-a+b$
$a-b=0 \ldots(1)$
$f(1)=a(1)+b$
$2=a+b$
$a+b=2 \ldots(2)$
Solving (1) and (2) we get
$a-b=0$
$a+b=2$
$(1)+(2) \Rightarrow 2 a=2$
$a=\frac{2}{2}=1$
Substitute $a =1$ in (1)
The value of $a=1$ and $b=1$

Question 145 Marks
Show that the function f : N → N defined by f(x) = 2x – 1 is one-one but not onto
Answer
f : N → N
N = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …}
f(x) = 2x – 1
f(1) = 2(1) – 1 = 2 – 1 = 1
f(2) = 2(2) – 1 = 4 – 1 = 3
f(3) = 2(3) – 1 = 6 – 1 = 5
f(4) = 2(4) – 1 = 8 – 1 = 7
f(5) = 2(5) – 1 = 10 – 1 = 9
f = {(1, 1) (2, 3) (3, 5) (4, 7) (5, 9) …..}


(i) Different elements have different images. This function is one function.
(ii) Here Range is not equal to co-domain. This function, not an onto function.
∴ The given function is one-one but not an onto.

Question 155 Marks
A function $f:[-5,9] \rightarrow R$ is defined as follow:$f ( x )=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}6 x+1 ; & -5 \leq x<2 \\5 x^2-1 ; & 2 \leq x<6 \\3 x-4 ; & 6 \leq x \leq 9\end{array} \text { Find } \frac{2 f (-2)- f (6)}{ f (4)+ f (-2)}\right.$
Answer
$f(x)=6 x+1 ; x=\{-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1\}$
$f(x)=5 x^2-1 ; x=\{2,3,4,5\}$
$f(x)=3 x-4 ; x=\{6,7,8,9\}$
$\frac{2 f (-2)- f (6)}{ f (4)+ f (-2)}$
$f(x)=6 x+1$
$f(-2)=6(-2)+1=-12+1=-11$
$f(x)=3 x-4$
$f(6)=3(6)-4=18-4=14$
$f(x)=5 x^2-1$
$f(4)=5(4)^2-1=5(16)-1$
$=80-1=79$
$f(x)=6 x+1$
$f(-2)=6(-2)+1=-12+1=-11$
$\frac{2 f (-2)- f (6)}{ f (4)+ f (-2)}=\frac{2(-11)-14}{79-11}$
$=\frac{-22-14}{68}$
$=\frac{-36}{68}$
$=\frac{-9}{17}$

Question 165 Marks
A function $f$ is defined by $f(x)=3-2 x$. Find $x$ such that $f\left(x^2\right)=(f(x))^2$
Answer
$f(x) = 3 – 2x f(x^2) = 3 – 2 (x^2) = 3 – 2x^2$
$(f(x))^2 = (3 – 2x)^2 = 9 + 4x^2 – 12x$
But
$f(x^2) = (f(x))^2 3 – 2x^2 = 9 + 4x^2 – 12x –2x^2 – 4x^2+ 12x + 3 – 9$
$= 0 –6x^2 + 12x – 6 = 0 (÷ by – 6)$
$\Rightarrow x^2 – 2x + 1 = 0 (x – 1) (x – 1) = 0 x – 1 = 0$ or $x – 1 = 0 x = 1$ The value of $x = 1$

Question 175 Marks
An open box is to be made from a square piece of material, $24$ cm on a side, by cutting equal square from the corner and turning up the side as shown. Express the volume V of the box as a function of x
Answer


After cutting squares we will get a cuboid,
length of the cuboid $(I)=24-2 x$
breadth of the cuboid $(b)=24-2 x$
height of the cuboid $(h)=2 x$
Volume of the box $=$ Volume of the cuboid
$V=(24-2 x)(24-2 x)(x) $
$=(24-2 x)^2(x) $
$=\left(576+4 x^2-96 x\right) x $
$=576 x+4 x^3-96 x^2 $
$V=4 x^3-96 x^2+576 x $
$V(x)=4 x^3-96 x^2+576 x$
