State whether each of the following statements are true or false. If the statement is false, rewrite the given statement correctly.
(i)
If P = {m, n} and Q = {n, m}, then P × Q = {(m, n), (n, m)}.
(ii)

(iii)
If A = {1, 2}, B = {3, 4}, then A × (B ∩ φ) = φ.
Solution
(i) If P = {m, n} and Q = {n, m}, then P × Q = {(m, n), (n, m)}.

Reason:
We have P = {m, n} and Q = {n, m}.
The Cartesian product P × Q is the set of all ordered pairs where and .
The given set P × Q = {(m, n), (n, m)} is incomplete.
Correct Statement: If P = {m, n} and Q = {n, m}, then P × Q = {(m, n), (m, m), (n, n), (n, m)}.
(ii) If A and B are non-empty sets, then A × B is a non-empty set of ordered pairs (x, y) such that x ∈ A and y ∈ B.
Answer: True.
Reason:
This is the definition of the Cartesian product of two non-empty sets. Since both A and B are non-empty, their Cartesian product A × B will also be non-empty and will consist of ordered pairs where and .
(iii) If A = {1, 2}, B = {3, 4}, then A × (B ∩ φ) = φ.
Answer: True.
Reason:
The intersection of any set B with the empty set φ is the empty set itself.

Let R be the relation on Z defined by R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ Z, a - b is an integer}. Find the domain and range of R.
Solution
Given:
The relation R is defined on the set of integers Z.
R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ Z, a - b is an integer}.
To Find: The domain and range of R.
Solution:
The condition for an ordered pair (a, b) to be in R is that both a and b are integers, and their difference, , is also an integer.
We know that the difference between any two integers is always an integer. This means that for any integer 'a' and any integer 'b', the pair (a, b) will always satisfy the condition .
Therefore, the relation R consists of all possible ordered pairs of integers. This means R is the Cartesian product Z × Z.
Domain of R:
The domain is the set of all possible first elements 'a'. Since 'a' can be any integer, the domain is the set of all integers, Z.
Domain of R = Z.
Range of R:
The range is the set of all possible second elements 'b'. Since 'b' can be any integer, the range is the set of all integers, Z.
Range of R = Z.
Final Answer:
The domain of R is Z (the set of all integers).
The range of R is Z (the set of all integers).
Q1EXERCISE 2.3
Which of the following relations are functions? Give reasons. If it is a function, determine its domain and range.
(i)
{(2,1), (5,1), (8,1), (11,1), (14,1), (17,1)}
(ii)
{(2,1), (4,2), (6,3), (8,4), (10,5), (12,6), (14,7)}
(iii)
{(1,3), (1,5), (2,5)}
Solution
(i) R₁ = {(2,1), (5,1), (8,1), (11,1), (14,1), (17,1)}
Answer: This relation is a function.
Reason: A relation is a function if every element in the domain has one and only one image. Here, each distinct first element (2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17) has a unique image, which is 1. It is permissible for multiple elements in the domain to have the same image.
Domain and Range:
- Domain = Set of first elements = {2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17}.
- Range = Set of second elements = {1}.
(ii) R₂ = {(2,1), (4,2), (6,3), (8,4), (10,5), (12,6), (14,7)}
Answer: This relation is a function.
Reason: Every first element in the ordered pairs is distinct, and each has exactly one image. For example, 2 has only image 1, 4 has only image 2, and so on.
Domain and Range:
- Domain = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14}.
- Range = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.
(iii) R₃ = {(1,3), (1,5), (2,5)}
Answer: This relation is not a function.
Reason: The definition of a function requires that no two distinct ordered pairs have the same first element. In this relation, the first element '1' is associated with two different images, 3 and 5. This violates the condition for a relation to be a function.
Q2EXERCISE 2.3
Find the domain and range of the following real functions:
(i)
f(x) = -|x|
(ii)

Multiplying by -1 reverses the inequality sign:
This means that the value of is always less than or equal to 0.
Range = .
(ii) f(x) = √(9-x²)
Domain:
The function involves a square root, so the expression inside the square root must be non-negative.
Taking the square root of both sides:
This means .
Domain = [-3, 3].
Range:
Let .
By definition, the square root function gives a non-negative result, so .
To find the maximum value of y, we look at the expression . Since , the maximum value of occurs when is minimum, i.e., (or ).
When , .
The minimum value of occurs when is minimum. This happens when is maximum, i.e., (or ).
When , .
So, the value of y ranges from 0 to 3.
Range = [0, 3].

Solution
Given: The function .
To Find: The values for parts (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv).
Solution:
(i) t(0):
Substitute C = 0 into the function.
So, 0°C is equal to 32°F.
(ii) t(28):
Substitute C = 28 into the function.
So, 28°C is equal to 82.4°F.
(iii) t(-10):
Substitute C = -10 into the function.
So, -10°C is equal to 14°F.
(iv) The value of C, when t(C) = 212:
Set the function equal to 212 and solve for C.
Multiply both sides by 5:
Divide by 9:
So, 212°F is equal to 100°C.

(i)
(ii)

(i) f(x) = 2 - 3x, x ∈ R, x > 0.
Given: The domain is .
Solution:
We start with the inequality for the domain:
Multiply by 3:

This means the range consists of all real numbers less than 2.
Range = .
(ii) f(x) = x² + 2, x is a real number.
Given: The domain is .
Solution:
For any real number , its square is always non-negative.
Add 2 to both sides of the inequality:

This means the range consists of all real numbers greater than or equal to 2.
Range = .
(iii) f(x) = x, x is a real number.

Part 2: Show that g is not a function
Given: The relation
Proof:
The relation is defined from to . The definition changes at . We check the image of using both rules.
- Using the first rule: .
- Using the second rule: .
At , the relation yields two different images, 4 and 6. This means the ordered pairs (2, 4) and (2, 6) are both in the relation . Since the element 2 in the domain does not have a unique image, the relation violates the definition of a function.
Conclusion: is not a function.
Hence Proved.

Solution
Given: The relation R on the set of natural numbers N is R = {(a, b): a, b ∈ N and a = b²}.
(i) (a, a) ∈ R, for all a ∈ N

Q10Miscellaneous Exercise on Chapter 2
Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4}, B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16} and f = {(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 1), (4, 5), (2, 11)}. Are the following true?
(i)
f is a relation from A to B
(ii)
f is a function from A to B. Justify your answer in each case.
Solution
Given:
A = {1, 2, 3, 4}
B = {1, 5, 9, 11, 15, 16}
f = {(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 1), (4, 5), (2, 11)}
(i) f is a relation from A to B
Answer: True.
Justification:
A relation from A to B is a subset of the Cartesian product A × B. This means that for every ordered pair in the relation, must be an element of A and must be an element of B.
Let's check each pair in f:
- (1, 5): and . Correct.
- (2, 9): and . Correct.
- (3, 1): and . Correct.
- (4, 5): and . Correct.
- (2, 11): and . Correct. Since all ordered pairs in f consist of a first element from A and a second element from B, f is a subset of A × B. Therefore, f is a relation from A to B.
(ii) f is a function from A to B
Answer: False.
Justification:
For a relation to be a function from A to B, every element of set A must have one and only one image in set B. In other words, no two distinct ordered pairs can have the same first element.
Let's examine the ordered pairs in f:
We can see two ordered pairs with the same first element: (2, 9) and (2, 11).
This means that the element 2 in the domain A has two different images, 9 and 11, in the codomain B. This violates the definition of a function.
Therefore, f is not a function from A to B.
Q11Miscellaneous Exercise on Chapter 2
Let f be the subset of Z × Z defined by f = {(ab, a+b): a, b ∈ Z}. Is f a function from Z to Z? Justify your answer.
Solution
Given: The relation f is defined as f = {(ab, a+b): a, b ∈ Z}.
To determine: Is f a function from Z to Z?
Answer: No, f is not a function from Z to Z.
Justification:
For f to be a function, every element in the domain must have a unique image. Let's test if it is possible for a single first element, , to be associated with more than one second element, .
Let's choose some integers for and to generate a pair in f.
Let and . Both are integers.
- The first element is .
- The second element is .
- So, the ordered pair (6, 5) is in f.
Now, let's try to find another pair of integers, say and , such that their product is also 6, but their sum is different from 5.
Let and . Both are integers.
- The first element is .
- The second element is .
- So, the ordered pair (6, 7) is also in f.
We have found two ordered pairs, (6, 5) and (6, 7), which have the same first element (6) but different second elements (5 and 7). This means the element 6 in the domain does not have a unique image.
Since at least one element in the domain has more than one image, the relation f is not a function.

Final Answer: The range of f is {3, 5, 11, 13}.
