Question
Let A = [–1, 1]. Then, discuss whether the following functions defined on A are one-one, onto or bijective:
f(x) = `x/2`
Advertisements
Solution
Given, A = [–1, 1]
f: [–1, 1] → [–1, 1], f(x) = `x/2`
Let f(x1) = f(x2)
`x_1/2` = x2
So, f(x) is one-one.
Also x ∈ [–1, 1]
`x/2` = f(x) = `[-1/2, 1/2]`
Hence, the range is a subset of co-domain ‘A’
So, f(x) is not onto.
Therefore, f(x) is not bijective.

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.
- Ravi wants to know among those relations, how many functions can be formed from B to G?
