ASSESSMENT 

I. Tell whether the given is an EXPRESSION or a SENTENCE. If it is a sentence, identify whether

it is a true or false sentence.

ANSWER
1. cat EXPRESSION
2. 2 EXPRESSION
3. The word ‘cat’ begins with the letter ‘k ’. SENTENCE- false
4. 1 + 2 = 4 SENTENCE-false
5. 5 − 3 EXPRESSION
6. 5 − 3 = 2 SENTENCE- true
7. The cat is black. SENTENCE- sometimes true/sometimes false
8. x EXPRESSION
9. x = 1 SENTENCE- sometimes true/sometimes false
10. x − 1 = 0 SENTENCE- sometimes true/sometimes false
11. t + 3 EXPRESSION
12. t + 3 = 3 + t SENTENCE- always true
13. This sentence is false. SENTENCE-sometimes true/sometimes false
14. x + 0 = x SENTENCE- sometimes true/sometimes false
15. 1 · x = x SENTENCE- sometimes true/sometimes false

II. Identify the set given.

1. Which of the following are sets? Justify your answer.
(a) The collection of all the days in a week beginning with the letter ‘T’.
(b) The collection of all difficult questions in the chapter on sets.
(c) The collection of girls in your class.
(d) The collection of all rivers in India.
(e) The collection of all active teachers in the school.

(a), (c) and (d) are sets because they are well-defined collection of distinct objects.
2. If,
A = {3, 5, 7, 9}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {12, 14, 18, 20, 24}
D = {21, 26, 31, 36}

(a) State whether true or false. (∈ means element. ∉ means not element)

(i) 13 ∈ C FALSE
(ii) 6 ∉ A TRUE
(iii) 9 ∉ A FALSE
(iv) 24 ∈ C TRUE
(v) 31 ∈ D TRUE

(b) Fill in the blanks.

(i) 3∈A
(ii) 4∈B
(iii) 26 ∉ C
(iv) 8∈B
(v) 5∈A

3. Write the following sets in the roster form.

(a) A = The set of all even numbers less than 12 {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
(b) B = The set of all prime numbers greater than 1 but less than 29 {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19,
23}
(c) C = The set of integers lying between -2 and 2 {-1, 0, 1}
(d) D = The set of letters in the word LOYAL {L, O, Y, A}
(e) E = The set of vowels in the word CHOICE {O, I, E}
(f) F = The set of all factors of 36 {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36}
4. Write each of the following in set builder form.
(a) A = {5, 10, 15, 20} {x: x is a multiple of 5}

(b) B = {l, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18} {x : x is a factor of 18}

(c) C = {P, R, I, N, C, A, L {x : x is a letter of the word ‘Principal’}

(d) D = {0} {x:x is a smallest whole number}

(e) E = { } {x : x ∊ N and x < 1)

III. Determine if the relation defines y as a function of x.

1. FUNCTION
2. NOT FUNCTION
3. NOT FUNCTION
4. FUNCTION
5. FUNCTION

IV. Perform given operations.

f(x) = 2x – 5 g(x) = 3x – 4

1. f(x) + g(x)
Solution:
(2x-5)+(3x-4)
= 5x-9

2. f(x) – g(x)
Solution:
(2x-5)- (3x-4)
= -x-1

3. f(x) ⋅ g(x)
Solution:
(2x-5) ⋅ (3x-4)
 = 6x²-23x+20

4. f(x)/g(x)
Solution:
(2x-5)/(3x-4)
= -7/3
