Question

Is the given relation a function? Give reasons for your answer.

s = {(n, n2) | n is a positive integer}

Sum

Solution

s = {(n, n2) | n is a positive integer}

Therefore, element n is a positive integer and the corresponding n2 will be a unique and distinct number, as square of any positive integer is unique.

Therefore, every element in the domain has unique image.

A relation is said to be function if every element of one set has one and only one image in other set.

Hence, s is a function.
