f : R → R, defined by f(x) = 5x3 + 4
Advertisements
Solution
f : R → R, defined by f(x) = 5x3 + 4
Injection test :
Let x and y be any two elements in the domain (R), such that f(x) = f(y).
f(x) = f(y)
5x3+4 = 5y3+4
5x3= 5y3
x3= y3
x = y
So, f is an injection .
Surjection test:
Let y be any element in the co-domain (R), such that f(x) = y for some element x in R (domain).
f(x) = y
5x3+4 = y
5x3+ 4 = y
`x^3 = (y - 4)/5 ∈ R `
So, f is a surjection and f is a bijection.

An organization conducted a bike race under 2 different categories-boys and girls. Totally there were 250 participants. Among all of them finally, three from Category 1 and two from Category 2 were selected for the final race. Ravi forms two sets B and G with these participants for his college project. Let B = {b1,b2,b3} G={g1,g2} where B represents the set of boys selected and G the set of girls who were selected for the final race.
Ravi decides to explore these sets for various types of relations and functions.
