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!

Let S be a non-empty set and P (S) be its power set. Let any two subsets A and B of S.
It is given that: is defined as
We know that
Thus, X is the identity element for the given binary operation*.
Now, an element is invertible if there exists such that
(As X is the identity element)
i.e.
This case is possible only when
Thus, X is the only invertible element in P (X) with respect to the given operation*.
Hence, the given result is proved.

Since every set is a subset of itself, ARA for all A ∈ P (X).
∴R is reflexive.
Let ARB ⇒ A ⊂ B.
This cannot be implied to B ⊂ A.
For instance, if A = {1, 2} and B = {1, 2, 3}, then it cannot be implied that B is related to A.
∴ R is not symmetric.
Further, if ARB and BRC, then A ⊂ B and B ⊂ C.
⇒ A ⊂ C
⇒ ARC
∴ R is transitive.
Hence, R is not an equivalence relation since it is not symmetric.

Define by
And, by,
We first show that g is not onto.
For this, consider element 1 in co-domain N. it is clear that this element is not an image of any of the elements in domain.
is not onto.
Now, is defined by,
Then, it is clear that for , there exists such that
Hence, gof is onto.
