This is a Short Answer Type Question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Sol:

f (x) = 2x − 3

Let  f (x)= y = 2x – 3⇒  y  +  3  = 2x  ⇒ x  =y?   +32∴        f−1 (y)  =  y+32   0r  f−1 (x)  =  x+32

This is a Short Answer Type Question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Sol: R = { (a, a), (b, c), (a, b)}.

To make R as reflexive we must add (b, b) and (c, c) to R. Also, to make R as transitive we must add

(a, c) to R.

So, minimum number of ordered pair is to be added are (b, b), (c, c), (a, c).
