A binary operation * on {a, b} is a function from {a, b} * {a, b} → {a, b}
i.e., * is a function from { (a, a), (a, b), (b, a), (b, b)} → {a, b}.
Hence, the total number of binary operations on the set {a, b} is 24 i.e., 16.
The correct answer is B.

It is given that,
is defined as
Also, is defined as , where [x] is the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
Now, let
Then, we have:
if and if
Thus, when , we have
Hence, fog and gof do not coincide in (0, 1).
Therefore, option (B) is correct.

Let X={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
The operation* on X is defined as:
An element is the identity element for the operation*, if
For we observed that
Thus, 0 is the identity element for the given operation*.
An element is invertible if there exists such that
i.e.,
But, X={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and . Then, .
is the inverse of
Hence, the inverse of an element is 6-a i.e.,
* | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
0 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 0 |
2 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 0 | 1 |
3 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 0 | 1 | 2 |
4 | 4 | 5 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
5 | 5 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |

It is given that ∗: P (X) * P (X) → P (X) be defined as
A * B = (A – B) ∪ (B – A), A, B ∈ P (X).
Now, let A? P (X). Then, we get,
A *? = (A –? ) ∪ (? –A) = A∪? = A
? * A = (? - A) ∪ (A -? ) =? ∪A = A
A *? = A =? * A, A? P (X)
Therefore? is the identity element for the given operation *.
Now, an element A? P (X) will be invertible if there exists B? P (X) such that
A * B =? = B * A. (as? is an identity element.)
Now, we can see that A * A = (A –A) ∪ (A – A) =? ∪? =? A? P (X).
Therefore, all the element A of P (X) are invertible with A-1 = A.

It is given that*: and is defined as
For , we have:
The operation* is commutative.
It can be observed that,
The operation* is not associative.
Now, consider the operation o:
It can be observed that
The operation o is not commutative.
Let, . Then we have:
The operation o is associative.
Now, . Then we have:
The operation o does not distribute over*.

S = {a, b, c}, T = {1, 2, 3}
(i) F: S → T is defined as:
F = { (a, 3), (b, 2), (c, 1)}
⇒ F (a) = 3, F (b) = 2, F (c) = 1
Therefore, F−1 : T → S is given by
F−1 = { (3, a), (2, b), (1, c)}.
(ii) F: S → T is defined as:
F = { (a, 2), (b, 1), (c, 1)}
Since F (b) = F (c) = 1, F is not one-one.
Hence, F is not invertible i.e., F−1 does not exist.

Onto functions from the set {1, 2, 3, …, n} to itself is simply a permutation on n symbols 1, 2, …, n.
Thus, the total number of onto maps from {1, 2, …, n} to itself is the same as the total number of permutations on n symbols 1, 2, …, n, which is n!
