Let f : N → N be defined by
State whether the function f is bijective. Justify your answer.
f: N → N is defined as
It can be observed that:
∴ f is not one-one.
Consider a natural number (n) in co-domain N.
Case I: n is odd
∴n = 2r + 1 for some r ∈ N. Then, there exists 4r + 1∈N such that
.
Case II: n is even
∴n = 2r for some r ∈ N. Then,there exists 4r ∈N such that.
∴ f is onto.
Hence, f is not a bijective function
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 + x2
Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = |x|, is neither oneone nor onto, where | x | is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is – x, if x is negative.
Prove that the Greatest Integer Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = [x], is neither one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
The total revenue in Rupees received from the sale of x units of a product is given by
R (x) = 13x2 + 26x + 15
Find the marginal revenue when x = 7.
y = x2 + 2x + C : y' - 2x - 2 = 0
Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that the inverse of f –1 is f, i.e., (f–1)–1 = f.
y = ex +1 : yn -y' = 0
Show that the function f : R* → R* defined by f(x) = 1/x is one-one and onto,where R* is the set of all non-zero real numbers. Is the result true, if the domain R* is replaced by N with co-domain being same as R* ?
