27. The function f : R → R defined as f(x) = [x], where [x] is greatest integer ≤ x, is onto function. State true or false.
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: False, as range of f is set of integers, i.e.
Z and range of f ⊆ co-domain R. Hence,not onto e.g. for \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∈ R (co-domain) there is no x ∈ R (domain) such that y = f(x) or \(\frac{1}{2}\) e∈ R has no pre-image.

Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: One-one, as for x1 ≠ x2
⇒ f(x1) ≠ f(x2).
32. Let f : R → R is defined by f (x) = | x |. Is function f onto? Give a reason. [HOTS]
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: f is not onto, as for some y ∈ R from co-domain, there is no x ∈ R from domain such that y = f(x), e.g. for -2 ∈ R (co-domain) there is no x ∈ R (domain) such that f(x) = -2, i.e. |x| = -2. Hence, not onto.
33. If f : R → R and g : R → R are given by f (x) = sin x and g(x) = 5x², find gof(x).
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: gof(x) = g(f(x)) = g(sin x) = 5 sin² x.

Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination:
gof: {1, 3, 4} → {1, 3}.
gof(1) = g(f(1)) = g(2) = 3.
gof(3) = g(K3)) = g(5) = 1
gof(4) = g(f(4)) = g(1) = 3
gof = {(1, 3), (3, 1), (4, 3)}.
35. Prove that f : R → R given by f(x) = x3 + 1 is one-one function.
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination:
Given f(x) = x3 + 1
For x1 ≠ x2
⇒ x13 ≠ x23
⇒ x13 + 1 ≠ x23 + 1
⇒ f(x1) ≠ f(x2). Hence, one-one
36. Show that the Signum Function f : R → R,
one-one nor onto.
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination:
Range of function is {-1, 0, 1} and co-domain is set of real numbers R.
⇒ Range ⊆ co-domain.
There is at least one element in R(codomain) which is not image of any element of the domain, e.g. for 2 e R(co-domain), there is no x in domain such that f(x) = 2, x ∈ R.
Hence, function is not onto.
Also, let x1 = 2 and x2 = 3 then f(x1) = 1 and f(x2) = 1
i.e., x1 ≠ x2 ⇒ f(x1) = f(x2).
So, function is not one-one.
37. Given f(x) = sin x check if function f is one-one for (i) (0, π) (ii) (-\(\frac{π}{2}\), \(\frac{π}{2}\)).

= 9x+ 8.
39. Write fog, if f : R → R and g : R → R are given by f(x) = |x| and g(x) = |5x – 2|. [Foreign]
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: (fog)(x) =f(g(x))
=f(|5x-2|) = ||5x-2||.
40. Write fog, if f : R → R and g : R → R are given by f(x) = 8x3 and g(x) = x1/3. [Foreign]
Answer/Explanation
Answer:
Explaination: (fog)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x1/3) = 8(x1/3)3 = 8x.
