. Let f : R → R be defined as f(x) = 3x. Choose the correct answer. (A) f is one-one onto (B) f is many-one onto (C) f is one-one but not onto (D) f is neither one-one nor onto.

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q12 f : R → R defined as f ( x ) = 3 x . Let x , y ∈ R such that f ( x ) = f ( y ). ⇒ 3 x = 3 y ⇒ x = y ∴ f is one-one. Also, for any real number ( y) in co-domain R , there exists in R such that . ∴ f is onto. Hence, function f is one-one and onto. The correct answer is A.

Let f : R → R be defined as f(x) = x 4 . Choose the correct answer. (A) f is one-one onto (B) f is many-one onto (C) f is one-one but not onto (D) f is neither one-one nor onto.

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q11 f : R → R is defined as f (x) = x 4 Let x , y ∈ R such that f ( x ) = f ( y ). ∴ does not imply that x 1 =x 2 . For instance, f (1) = f (-1) = 1 ∴ f is not one-one. Consider an element 2 in co-domain R . It is clear that there does not exist any x in domain R such that f ( x ) = 2. ∴ f is not onto. Hence, function f is neither one-one nor onto. The correct answer is D

Let A = R – {3} and B = R – {1}. Consider the function f : A → B defined by f(x) = (x-2)/(x-3) Is f one-one and onto? Justify your answer.

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q10 A = R - {3}, B = R - {1} f : A → B is defined as Let x,y∈A such that f(x)=f(y). ⇒ (x-2)/(x-3)=(y-2)/(y-3) ⇒ (x-2)(y-3)=(y-2)(x-3) ⇒ xy-3x-2y+6=xy-3y-2x+6 ⇒ -3x-2y=-3y-2x ⇒ 3x-2x=3y-2y ⇒ x=y ∴ f is one-one. Let y ∈B = R - {1}. Then, y ≠ 1. The function f is onto if there exists x ∈A such that f ( x ) = y. Now, f(x)=y ⇒(x-2)(x-3)=y ⇒x-2=xy-3y ⇒x(1-y)=-3y+2 ⇒ x=2-3y/1-y ∈A Thus, for any y ∈ B, there exists x=2-3y/1-y ∈A such that Hence, function f is one-one and onto.

Let f : N → N be defined by f (n) ={ (n+1)/2, if n is odd and (n-1)/2, if n is even, for all n ∈ N.State whether the function f is bijective. Justify your answer

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q9 Thus it is bijective.

Let A and B be sets. Show that f : A × B → B × A such that f(a, b) = (b, a) is bijective function.

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q8 f: A × B → B × A is defined as f(a, b) = (b, a). ∴ f is one-one. Now, let (b, a) ∈ B × A be any element. Then, there exists (a, b) ∈A × B such that f(a, b) = (b, a). [By definition of f] ∴ f is onto. Hence, f is bijective.

In each of the following cases, state whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer. (i) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 – 4x (ii) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 1 + x^2

Class 12, NCERT Chapter 1, Exercise 1.2, Q7 (i) Here f(x) = 3 – 4x Then f(x 1 ) = 3 – 4x 1 and f (x 2 ) = 3 – 4x 2 Now f(x 1 ) = f (x 2 ) ⇒ 3 – 4x 1 = 3 – 4x 2 ⇒ – 4x 1 = –4x 2 ⇒ x 1 = x 2 ∴ f(x 1 ) = f(x 2 ) & x 1 = x 2 So, f is one-one function. Let f(x) = y ∈ R Then y=3 - 4x ⇒ x= 3-y/4 (ii) Let x 1 = 2 and x 2 = –2 ∈ R Here f(x) = 1 + x 2 Then f(x 1 ) = f (2) = 1 + (2) 2 = 5 and f (x 2 ) = f(–2) = 1 + (–2) 2 = 5 ∴ f (x 1 ) = f(x 2 ) but x 1 ≠ x 2 So, f is not one-one function. Let f(x) = – 2 ⇒R Then 1 + x 2 = –2 ⇒ x 2 = –3 = ± √–3 ∈R So, f is not onto function.
