Given,  f:R→R defined by f (x)=x4

For x1, x2∈R such that f (x1)=f (x2)

⇒x14=x24

⇒x1=±x2

⇒x1=x2 or x1=−x2

So,  f is not one-one

The range of f (x) is a set of all positive real numbers which is not equal to co-domain R

So,  f in not onto

∴ Option (D) is correct

Given, f:A→B defined by f(x)=(x−2x−3)

Let x1,x2∈A=R−{3} such that

f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒x1−2x1−3=x2−2x2−3

⇒(x1−2)(x2−3)=(x2−2)(x1−3)

⇒x1x2−3x1−2x2+6=x2x1−3x2−2x1+6

⇒2x1−3x1=2x2−3x2

⇒−x1=−x2

⇒x1=x

So, f is one-one

For y∈B=R−{1} there exist f(x)=y such that

x−2x−3=y

⇒x−2=xy−3y

⇒x−xy=2−3y

⇒x(1−y)=2−3y

⇒x=2−3y1−y where y≠1.∈A

Thus, f(2−3y1−y)=(2−3y1−y)−2(2−3y1−y)−3=2−3y−2+2y2−3y−3+3y

⇒−y−1=y

∴f is onto

Given, f:N→N defined f(x)=(x+12,ifx  is  oddx2,ifx  is  even) ∪x∈N

Let x1=1 and x2=2∈N,

f(x1)=f(x2)⇒f(1)=f(2)

⇒1+12=22

⇒1=1 but 1≠2

So, f is not one-one

For x= odd and x∈N , say x=2C+1 where C∈N

There exist (4C+1) ∈N such that

(4C+1)=4C+1+12=2C+1.∈N

And for x= even ∈N , say x=2C where C∈N

There exist (4C)∈N such that

f(4C)=4C2=2C.∈N

So, f is onto

But, f is not bijective

Given, f:A*B→B*A defined as f(a,b)=(b,a)

Let (a1,b1),(a2,b2)∈A*B such that

f(a1,b1)=f(a2,b2)

⇒(b1,a1)=(b2,a2)

So, b1=b2 and a1=a2

⇒(a1,b1)=(a2,b2)

∴f is one-one

For (a,b)∈B*A

There exist (a,b)∈A*B such that f(a,b)=(b,a)

∴f is onto

Hence, f is bijective

(i) f:R→R defined as f(x)=3−4x

For x1,x2∈R such that f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒3−4x1=3−4x2⇒4x1=4x2⇒x1=x2

So, f is one-one

For y∈R , there exist

f(.3−y4)=3−4(3−y4)=3−3+y=y

Hence, f is onto

∴f is bijective

(ii) Given, f:R→R defined as f(x)=1+x2

For x1,x2∈R such that f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒1+x12=1+x22⇒x12=x22⇒x1=±x2

⇒x1=x2 or x1=−x2

∴f is not one-one

The range of f(x) is always a positive real number which is not equal to co-domain R

So, f is not onto

Given,  f:A→B and f= { (1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)}

∴f (1)=4f (2)=5f (3)=6

i.e., the image elements of A under the given fXn f are unique

So,  f is one-one

The fxn f:R? R is given by f (x)= (1ifx>00ifx=0? 1ifx<0)

For x1=1, x2=2, ? R

f (x1)=f (1)=1

f (x2)=f (2)=1 but 1? 2

So,  f is not one-one

And the range of f (x)= {1, 0, ? 1} hence it is not equal to the co-domain R

So,  f is not onto

The fxn f:R→R is given by f(x)=|x|

⇒f(x)=(x,ifx≥0−x,ifx<0)

For x1=−1 and x2=1

f(x1)=f(−1)=|−1|=1

f(x2)=f(1)=|1|=1

So, f(x1)=f(x2) but x1≠x2

i.e., f is not one-one

For x=−1∈R

f(x)=|x|

i.e., f(−1)=|−1|=1

So, range of f(x) is always a positive real number and is not equal to the co-domain R

i.e., f is not onto

The fxn f:R→R is given by f(x)=[x]

Let x1=1.5 and x2=1.2∈R Then,

f(x1)=f(1.5)=[1.5]=1

f(x2)=f(1.2)=[1.2]=1

So, f(x1)=f(x2) but x1≠x2

i.e., f(1.5)=f(1.2) but 1.5≠1.2

So, f is not one-one

The range of f(x) is a set of all integers, Z which is not a co-domain of R

∴f is not onto

(i) f:N→N given by f(x)=x2

For, x1,x2∈N , f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒x12=x22

⇒x1=x2∉N

So, f is one-one/ injective

For x∈N , i.e., x=1,2,3....

Range of f(x)={12,22,32...}={1,4,9...}≠N

i.e., co-domain of N

So, f is not onto/ subjective

(ii) f:Z→Z given by f(x)=x2

For, x1,x2∈Z , f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒x12=x22

⇒x1=±x2∉Z

i.e., x1=x2 and x1=−x2

So, f is not one-one/ injective

For x∈Z , x=0,±1,±2,±3....

Range of f(x)={02,(±1)2,(±2)2,(±3)2...}

{0,1,4,9....}≠ co-domain Z

So, f is not onto/ subjective

(iii) f:R→R given by f(x)=x2

For, x1,x2∈R , f(x1)=f(x2)

⇒x12=x22

⇒x1=±x2

So, f is not injective

For x∈R

Range of f(x)={x2,x∈R} gives a set of all positive real numbers

Hence, range of f(x≠) co-domain of R

So, f is not subjective

(iv) f:N→N given by&n
