Total Questions : 30 | Page 1 of 3 pages
Question 1.


Inverse exists for a function which is


  1.     Injective
  2.     Surjective
  3.     Bijective
  4.     Many-one
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Bijective
:
C
We have seen that inverse exists only when function is one-one and onto, i.e. Bijective.
Question 2.


Let X be a family of sets and R be a relation on X defined by 'A is disjoint from B'. Then R is


  1.     Reflexive
  2.     Symmetric 
  3.     Anti-symmetric
  4.     Transitive
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Symmetric 
:
B

Clearly, the relation is symmetric but it is neither reflexive nor transitive.


Question 3.


Let R be a relation on the set N of natural numbers defined by nRm


⇔ n is a factor of m (i.e. n(m). Then R is 


  1.     Reflexive and symmetric
  2.     Transitive and symmetric
  3.     Equivalence
  4.     Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Reflexive, transitive but not symmetric
:
D

Since n | n for all n in N,


therefore R is reflexive.


Since 2 | 6 but 6 | 2, therefore R is not symmetric.


Let n R m and m R p  n|m and m|p  n|p  nRp


 So. R is transitive. 


Question 4.


If  f (x) +f (x+a) + f(x+2a) +....+ f (x+na) = constant; x ϵR  and  a>0 and f(x) is periodic,then period of f(x), is


  1.     (n+1) a
  2.     en+1a 
  3.     na
  4.     ena
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> (n+1) a
:
A
f(x)+f(x+a)+f(x+2a)+....+f(x+na)=k
replacing  x=x+a
f(x+a)+f(x+2a)+....+f(x+(n+1)a)=k
On subtracting second equation from first one -
f(x)f(x+(n+1)a)=0f(x)=f(x+(n+1)aT=(n+1)a
Question 5.


The function  f(x)=cosx is 


  1.     Periodic with period 2π
  2.     Periodic with period π
  3.     Periodic with period  4π2 
  4.     Not a periodic function
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Not a periodic function
:
D
Try drawing cosx graph. It’s not periodic. 
Question 6.


The inverse of f(x)=(5(x8)5)13 is


  1.     5(x8)5
  2.     8+(5x3)15
  3.     8(5x3)15
  4.     (5(x8)15)3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 8+(5x3)15
:
B

y=f(x)=(5(x8)5)13
then y3=5(x8)5(x8)5=5y3
 x=8+(5y3)15
Let, z=g(x)=8+(5x3)15
To check, f(g(x))=       [5(x8)5]13
=(5[(5x3)15]5)13=(55+x3)13=x
similarly , we can show that g(f(x))=x
Hence, g(x)=8+(5x3)15 is the inverse of f(x)


Question 7.


Which of the following relations in R is an equivalence relatilon?


  1.     xR1 y|x|=|y|
  2.     xR2 yxy
  3.     xR3 yxy
  4.     xR4 yx<y
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> xR1 y|x|=|y|
:
A
It is simple to check that only, R1 is an equivalence relation.
Question 8.


Let A be the non – empty set of children in a family.  The relation ‘x is a brother of y’ in A is


  1.     reflexive
  2.     symmetric
  3.     transitive
  4.     an equivalence relation
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> transitive
:
C
Let R denotes the relation ‘is brother of ‘.  Let X ϵ A.  If x is a girl, then we cannot say that x is brother of x.
(x,x) /ϵ R    R is not reflexive.
Let (x, y)    ϵ R                   x is a brother of y.
y may or may not be a boy.
we cannot say that (y, x) ϵ R.
R is not symmetric.
Let (x, y) ϵ and (y, z)  ϵ R.
x is a brother of y and y is a brother of z
is brother of z (x, z)  ϵ R
R is transitive.
The correct answer is (c).
Question 9.


Given, f(x) = log1+x1x and g(x) =3x+x31+3x2 then (fog) (x) equals


  1.     -f(x)
  2.     3f(x)
  3.     [f(x)]3
  4.     None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 3f(x)
:
B
(fog)(x)=f(g(x))=f(3x+x31+3x2)=log 1+3x2+3x+x31+3x23xx3=log (1+x)3(1x)3=3 f(x)
Question 10.


Let f:[0,) [0,2] be defined by f(x)=2x1+x , then f  is


  1.     one – one but not onto
  2.     onto but not one – one
  3.     both one – one and onto
  4.     neither one – one nor onto
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> one – one but not onto
:
A
We can draw the graph and see that the given function is one - one.
Since, Range Codomain f is into
f is only injective.
