) S.T thesignum function f:R-~ R isgiven by ft) =0
-I f x<0
neither

one nor onto

Sol: since
f(-f{2)= 1
Thedifferent elements 1&2 have the same image.
1.e
&) =f,)>x * x, when , x , are +ve real no's or x1,x are -ve real no's
f i s not one one

Also fis not onto because

except-1,0, 1 no other elements of codomain y has any pri
image in its domain.

28) State whether the function f:R> R defined by f(x)=3 4x is one

-
-
one onto
or bijective function.

Sol: f:R »R defined by f(x) =3-4x

Iff%)= Sr) when ER,

3-4x=3-4x,
-4x=4x,} =X2
:. fis one -one

Lety e co-ordinate such that f(x) y>3-4x

fis onto, hence fis

4x=-y+3=x= 4

 RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS

ifn is odd

29) Let : N~N be defined by f(n) =

forall n eN
ifn is even

state whether the function fis bijective. Justify your answer.

Sol: s0)---1, s1o---1

f ) = f(2) but 1*2
T h e elements 1,2 belongingto domain offhave the same image 1 its co domain.

. fis not one - one (injective)

Every element ofcodomain has preimage in its domain

Eg: 1 has two pre images 1 and 2

f i s onto

since fis not one-one fis not bijective.

0 Let A = R - {3} & B =R - (1} Consider the function f: A>B defined by

J()= .Is fone-on and onto? Justify your answer.

Sol: f:A>B when A=R-{3},B=R-{1}.fis defined by S(x) = X-3
