Directions: In the following questions, a statement of assertion $(A)$ is followed by a statement of reason $(R).$ Mark the correct choice as:
If $A = \{1, 2, 3\}, B = \{4,5, 6, 7\}$ and $f = \{(1, 4), (2,5), (3, 6)\}$ is a function from $A$ to $B.$
Assertion: $f(x)$ is a one $-$ one function.
Reason: $f(x)$ is an onto function.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false and $R$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: C.
$A$ is true but $R$ is false.
Given$, A= \{1, 2, 3\}, B = \{4, 5, 6, 7\}$
and $f : A \rightarrow B$ is defined as $f = \{(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)\}$
i.e.$, f(1) = 4, f(2) = 5$ and $f(3) = 6.$
It can be seen that the images of distinct elements of $A$ under $f$ are distinct.
So$, f$ is one $-$ one.
So$, A$ is true.
Range of $f = \{4, 5, 6\}.$
$Co -$ domain $= \{4, 5, 6, 7\}.$
Since $co -$ domain $\neq$ range$, f(x)$ is not an onto function.
Hence $R$ is false.

Directions: In the following questions, a statement of assertion $(A)$ is followed by a statement of reason $(R).$ Mark the correct choice as:
Consider the set $A = \{1, 3, 5\}.$
Assertion: The number of reflexive relations on set $A$ is $2^9.$
Reason: A relation is said to be reflexive if xRx, $\forall\ \text{x}\in\text{A}.$
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • $A$ is false and $R$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: D.
$A$ is false and $R$ is true.
By definition, a relation in A is said to be reflexive if $xRx,$ $\forall\ \text{x}\in\text{A}.$
So $R$ is true.
The number of reflexive relations on a set containing n elements is $2^{n2-n}. $
Here $n = 3.$
The number of reflexive relations on a set $A = 2^{9-3} = 2^6.$
Hence $A$ is false.

Let $W$ be the set of words in the English dictionary. $A$ relation $R$ is defined on $W$ as $R = \{(\text{x},\text{y})\in\text{W}\times\text{W}$such that $x$ and $y$ have at least one letter in common$\}.$
Assertion: $R$ is reflexive.
Reason: $R$ is symmetric.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false and $R$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
For any word $x$ and $x$ have atleast one $($all$)$ letter in common
$\therefore(\text{x},\text{x})\in\text{R},\forall\ \text{x}\in\text{W}$
$\therefore R$ is reflexive
Let $(\text{x},\text{y})\in\text{R},\text{x},\text{y}\in\text{W}$
$\Rightarrow x$ and $y$ have atleast one letter in common
$\Rightarrow y$ and $x$ have atleast one letter in common
$\Rightarrow(\text{y},\text{x})\in\text{R}$
$\therefore R$ is symmetric
Hence $A$ is true$, R$ is true$; R$ is not a correct explanation for $A.$

Answer
Correct option: C.
$A$ is true but $R$ is false.
$f(x)$ is a one $-$ one function if

Hence $R$ is false.
Let $f(x_1) = f(x_2)$ for some $\text{x}_{1},\text{x}_{2}\in\text{R}$
$\Rightarrow (x_1)^3= (x_2)^3$
$\Rightarrow x_1 = x_2$
Hence $f(x)$ is one - one.
Hence A is true.

  • D
    Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
Answer
Now, $\forall x \in R,(x, x) \notin R$ as $x+x=2 x$ is composite number i.e., not a prime number. So, $R$ is not a reflexive relation.
Reason is false as for $n=1,2 n$ is a prime number.
Hence, assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.

Let, $(x, y) \in R $
$\Rightarrow y-x$ is an integer.
$\Rightarrow x-y$ is an integer.
$\Rightarrow (y, x) \in R$
$ \therefore R$ is symmetric.
Let $(x, y),(y, z) \in R$. Let $x, y, z \in R$
$(x, y) \in R \Rightarrow y-x \text { is an integer }\ $
$(y, z) \in R \Rightarrow z-y \text { is an integer }$
$\Rightarrow z-x$ is an integer.
$\Rightarrow (x, z) \in R \therefore R$ is transitive
Hence, $R$ is an equivalence relation.
Now, $R=\{(x, y): x=\alpha y, \alpha \in Q\}$
Since, $(0, x) \in R $
$\Rightarrow 0=\alpha x$ for $\alpha=0$
But $(x, 0) \notin R$
$ \Rightarrow R$ is not symmetric
$\therefore R$ is not an equivalence relation.
$\therefore $ Assertion is true, Reason is false.

Assertion (A) : If $f: R \rightarrow R$ defined by $f(x)=7 x-[7 x]$, where [.] denotes greatest integer $\leq x \forall x \in R$, then $f$ is not one-one function.
Reason (R) : Fractional part functions are always many-one.
  • Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false but (R) is true.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(a) : $f(x)=7 x-[7 x]$
Let $7 x=y$
Then $f\left(\frac{y}{7}\right)=y-[y]=\{y\}$
$\Rightarrow f(x)$ is many-one.
$\therefore \quad$ Reason is correct & many-one function cannot be one-one function, so Assertion is also correct.

Assertion (A) : Let $f:(e, \infty) \rightarrow R$ defined by $f(x)=\log (\log (\log x))$ is bijective.
Reason (R) : A function $f$ will be bijective if $f$ is both one-one and onto.
  • Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false but (R) is true.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(a) : As $x \in(e, \infty)$
$\Rightarrow \log x>1 \Rightarrow \log (\log x)>\log 1$
$\Rightarrow \log (\log x)>0$
$\Rightarrow \log (\log (\log (x))>\log 0$
$\Rightarrow \log (\log (\log x)) \in(-\infty, \infty)$
$\Rightarrow$ codomain of $f(x)=$ Range of $f(x) \Rightarrow f$ is onto
Again logarithmic functions are always one-one.
$\therefore f(x)$ is both one - one and onto.

Assertion $(A) :$ The function $f: R \rightarrow[0,1)$ defined by $f(x)=\frac{x^2}{x^2+1}$ is surjective.
Reason $(R) :$ For surjection, Range of $f(x)=$ codomain of $f(x)$
  • Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A).$
  • B
    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R) $ is not the correct explanation of $(A).$
  • C
    $(A)$ is true but $(R)$ is false.
  • D
    $(A)$ is false but $(R)$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A).$
For onto function, codomain of $f=$ range of $f$.
We have, $f(x)=\frac{x^2}{1+x^2}$.
Then $y \geq 0$.
$\Rightarrow y\left(1+x^2\right)=x^2 $
$\Rightarrow x^2(y-1)=-y$
$\Rightarrow x^2=\frac{y}{1-y} \geq 0$
$\Rightarrow \frac{y-0}{y-1} \leq 0 $
$\Rightarrow 0 \leq y<1 (\because y \neq 1)$
$\Rightarrow$ codomain of $f=$ Range of $f$, as $f: R \rightarrow[0,1)$.

Assertion $(A)$ : If set $A$ contains $7$ elements and set $B$ contains $6$ elements, then the number of one $-$ one onto mapping from $A$ to $B$ is $420$ .
Reason $(R)$ : If $A$ and $B$ are two non $-$ empty sets containing $m$ and $n$ elements respectively, then number of one $-$ one onto functions from $A$ to $B$
$=\left\{n !, \text { if } m=n \ 0, \text { if } m \neq n \right. \text {. \}}$
  • A
    Both $(A) $ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • B
    Both $(A) $ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • C
    $(A)$ is true but $(R) $ is false.
  • $(A)$ is false but $(R)$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: D.
$(A)$ is false but $(R)$ is true.
Clearly, reason is true.
Now, $m=7$ and $n=6$ i.e., $m \neq n$
$\therefore $ Number of one $-$ one onto mapping from $A$ to $B$ is $0 $.
$\therefore $ Assertion is false and Reason is true.

Assertion (A) : Let $A=\{-1,1,2,3\}$ and $B=\{1,4,9\}$, where $f: A \rightarrow B$ given by $f(x)=x^2$, then $f$ is not one-one function.
Reason (R): If $x_1 \neq x_2 \Rightarrow f\left(x_1\right) \neq f\left(x_2\right)$, for every $x_1, x_2 \in$ domain, then $f$ is one-one.
  • Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false but (R) is true.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(a) : Here $f(-1)=1, f(1)=1$, $f(2)=4, f(3)=9$
Two elements 1 and -1 have the same image $1 \in B$.
Image
So, $f$ is not one-one function.
