Question

Let A = {−1, 0, 1, 2}, B = {−4, −2, 0, 2} and f, g : A → B be functions defined by f(x) = x2 − x, x ∈ A and g(x) = `2|x - 1/2|- 1`, x ∈ A. Are f and g equal?

Justify your answer. (Hint: One may note that two functions f : A → B and g : A → B such that f(a) = g(a) ∀ a ∈ A are called equal functions.)

Solution

When x = −1,

f(−1) = 12 − (−1)

= 1 + 1

= 2

g(−1) = `2|(-1)-1/2| - 1`

= `2(3/2) - 1`

= 3 − 1

= 2

⇒ f(−1) = g(−1)

When x = 0,

f(0) = (0)2 − 0 = 0

g(0) = `2|0 - 1/2| - 1`

= `2(1/2) - 1`

= 1 − 1

= 0

⇒ f(0) = g(0)

When x = 1,

f(1) = (1)2 − 1

= 1 − 1

= 0

g(1) = `2|1 - 1/2| - 1`

= `2(1/2) - 1`

= 1 − 1

= 0

⇒ f(1) = g(1)

When x = 2,

f(2) = (2)2 − 2

= 4 − 2

= 2

g(2) = `2|2-1/2| - 1`

= `2(3/2)-1`

= 3 − 1

= 2

⇒ f(2) = g(2)

∴ f(a) = g(a) ∀ a ∈ A

Hence, the functions f and g are equal.
