x, when x = 0
x + 1, when x > 0
CASE I
f(x) = 1 – x, when x < 0
Here f(x) is defined for any negative value of x.
∴ Domain of f(x) = (-∞, 0)
As -∞ < x < 0
∴ 0 < -x < ∞
⇒ 1 + 0 < 1 – x < 1 + ∞
⇒ 1 < f(x) < ∞
∴ Range of f(x) = (1, ∞)
CASE II
f(x) = x, when x = 0
Here f(x) is defined for any negative value of x.
∴ Domain of f(x) = {0}
∴ Range of f(x) = {0}
CASE III
f(x) = x + 1, when x > 0
Here f(x) is defined for any positive value of x.
∴ Domain of f(x) = (0, ∞)
As 0 < x < ∞
∴ 0 +1 < x + 1 < ∞ +1
⇒ 1 ∞ < x + 1 < ∞
⇒ 1 < f(x) < ∞
∴ Range of f(x) = (1, ∞)
As a whole,
∴ Domain of f(x) = (-∞, ∞)

√x is defined for the set of all positive real numbers including 0.
Therefore, Domain of f(x) = [0, ∞)
For 0 ≤ x < ∞
The value of √x varies from 0 to ∞.
∴ Range of f(x) = [0, ∞)

Solution: Given:
f(x) = x + 1 and g(x) = 2x -3
∴ (f + g)(x)
= f(x) + g(x)
⇒ (x + 1) + (2x -3)
= x + 1 + 2x – 3
= 3x – 2
Therefore, (f + g)(x) = 3x -2
1. (ii) Let f : R → R : f(x) = x + 1 and g : R → R : g(x) = 2x – 3. Find: (f – g)(x)

∴ (f – g)(x)
= f(x) – g(x)
= (x + 1) – (2x -3)
⇒ x + 1 – 2x + 3
= 4 – x
Therefore,(f – g)(x) = 4 – x
1. (iii) Let f : R → R : f(x) = x + 1 and g : R → R : g(x) = 2x – 3. Find: (fg)(x)
Solution: Given:f(x) = x + 1 and g(x) = 2x -3
∴ (fg)(x)
= f(x). g(x)
= (x+1) (2x-3)
⇒ 2x2 – 3x + 2x -3
= 2x2 – x -3
Therefore,(fg)(x) = 2x2 – x -3

∴ (f + g)(x)
= f(x) + g(x)
= (2x + 5) + (x2 + x)

Solution: Given: f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + x
∴ (f – g)(x)
= f(x) – g(x)
= (2x + 5) – (x2 + x)
⇒ 2x + 5 – x2 – x
= -x2 + x + 5
Therefore, (f + g)(x) = -x2 + x + 5

Solution: Given: f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + x
∴ (fg)(x) = f(x).g(x)
= (2x + 5).(x2 + x)
⇒ 2x3 + 2x2 + 5x2 + 5x
= 2x3 + 7x2 + 5x
Therefore, (fg)(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 + 5x

Solution: Given:f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + x
∴ (f/g)(x)
= f(x)/g(x)
= 2x + 5/x2 + x
Therefore, (f/g)(x) = 2x + 5/x2 + x

∴ (f + g)(x)
= f(x) + g(x)
= (x3 + 1) + (x + 1)
⇒ x3 + 1 + x + 1
= x3 + x + 2
Therefore, (f + g)(x) = x3 + x + 2
3. (ii) Let f: R → R: f(x) = x3 + 1 and g: R → R: g(x) = (x + 1). Find: (f – g)(x)
Solution: Given: f(x) = x3 + 1 and g(x) = x + 1
∴ (f – g)(x)
= f(x) – g(x)
= (x3 + 1) – (x + 1)

4. (ii) Let f: R → R; f(x) = x/c, where c is a constant. Find: (c2f)(x)
Solution: Given: f(x) = x/c, where c is a constant.
∴ (c2f)(x)
= c2.f(x)
= c2. x/c = cx
Therefore, (c2f)(x) = cx
4. (iii) Let f: R → R; f(x) = x/c, where c is a constant. Find: (1/cf)(x)
Solution: Given: f(x) = x/c, where c is a constant.
∴ (1/cf)(x)
= 1/c.f(x)
= 1/c. x/c = x/c2
Therefore, (1/cf)(x) = x/c2
, ∴ (f + g)(x)
= f(x) + g(x)
∴ (f – g)(x)
= f(x) – g(x)
∴ (fg)(x)
= f(x).g(x)
Exercise 3F
1. Find the set of values for which the function f(x) = 1 – 3x and g(x) = 2x2 – 1 are equal.
Solution: f(x) = 1 – 3x and g(x) = 2x2 – 1
f(x) = g(x)
∴ 1 – 3x = 2x2 – 1
⇒ 2x2 – 1 – 1 + 3x = 0
⇒ 2x2 + 3x – 2 = 0
= 2x2 + 4x – x – 2 = 0
⇒ 2x(x + 2) – 1(x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 2)(2x – 1) = 0
∴ x = -2 or x = 1/2
∴ Set of values are { -2 , 1/2}.
2. Find the set of values for which the function f(x) = x + 3 and g(x) = 3x2 – 1 are equal.
Solution: f(x) = x + 3 and g(x) = 3x2 – 1
f(x) = g(x)x + 3 = 3x2 – 1
⇒ 3x2 – 1 – x – 3 = 0
⇒ 3x2 – x – 4 = 0
3x2 – 4x + 3x – 4 = 0
⇒ x(3x – 4) + 1(3x – 4) = 0
⇒ (3x – 4)(x + 1) = 0
∴ x = 4/3 or x = -1
∴ Set of values are { -1 , 4/3}.
3. Let X = {–1, 0, 2, 5} and f : X → R: f(x) = x3 + 1. Then, write f as a set of ordered pairs.
Solution: Given, X = {–1, 0, 2, 5} f : X → R R: f(x) = x3 + 1
f(x) = x3 + 1
∴ f(-1) = (-1) 3 + 1 = -1 + 1 = 0
∴ f(0) = (0) 3 + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1
f(2) = (2) 3 + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9
∴ f(5) = (5) 3 + 1 = 125 + 1 = 126
f as a set of ordered pairs:
f = {(-1, 0), (0, 1), (2, 9), (5, 126)}
4. Let A = {–2, –1, 0, 1, 2} and f : A → Z: f(x) = x2 – 2x – 3. Find f(A).
Solution: Given : A = {–2, –1, 0, 2} f : A → Z: f(x) = x2 – 2x – 3
f(x) = x2 – 2x – 3
∴ f(-2) = (-2) 2 – 2(-2) – 3 = 4 + 4 -3 = 5
∴ f(-1) = (-1) 2 – 2(-1) – 3 = 1 + 2 -3 = 0
f(0) = (0) 2 – 2(0) – 3 = 0 + 0 – 3 = -3
∴ f(1) = (1) 2 – 2(1) – 3 = 1 – 2 – 3 = -4
∴ f(2) = (2) 2 – 2(2) – 3 = 4 – 4 -3 = -3
f(A) = {5, 0, -3, -4}
5. Let f : R → R : f(x) = x2.determine (i) range (f) (ii) {x : f(x) = 4}
solution: Given: f(x) = x2
(i) Let y = f(x)
⇒ y = x2
Square of any real number is always 0 or positive real number.
∴ The value of y ≥ 0.
Hence, Range(f) is [0, ∞).
(ii) Let y = f(x)
Given f(x) = 4
Therefore,
x2 = 4
∴ x = ± 2
⇒ x = 2 or x = -2
∴ x = {2,-2}
6. Let f : R → R : f(x) = x2 + 1. Find f-1{10}.
Solution: Given:f : R → R : f(x) = x2 + 1
Let y = f(x)
⇒ y = x2 + 1
⇒ x2 = y – 1
Substituting x = 10,
7. Let f : R+ → R : f(x) = logex Find {x : f(x) = -2}.
Solution: Given, f : R+ → R : f(x) = logex
f(x) = -2
⇒ logex = -2
⇒ x = e-2
Hence, {x : f(x) = –2} = {e-2}.
8. Let A = {6, 10, 11, 15, 21} and let f : A → N : f(n) is the highest prime factor of n.
Find range (f).
Solution: Given, A = {6, 10, 11, 15, 21}
f : A → N : f(n) is the highest prime factor of n.
∴ f(6) = 3; f(10) = 5;
f(11) = 11; f(15) = 5;
f(21) = 7
Hence range is { 3, 5, 7, 11}.
9. Find the range of the function f(x) = sin x.
Solution: Given f(x) = sin x.
We know,
-1 ≤ sinx ≤ 1
⇒ -1 ≤ f(x) ≤ 1
Hence, Range is [-1, + 1].
10. Find the range of the function f(x) = |x|.
Solution: Given f(x) = |x|.
|x| = -x when x < 0
|x| = x when x ≥ 0
∴The value of |x| is never a negative value.
Hence range of |x| is [0, ∞).
Where [x] is the Greatest Integer Function of x.
Now
x = [x] + {x}, Where {x} is a fractional part of x
⇒ x – [x] = {x}
∴ f(x) = √{x}
Ans: Hence domain of f(x) is R.
Ans: As the root value [0, 1) lies between [0,1).
Hence the range of f(x) is [0, 1).
Solution: Given f(x) = x – 5/5 – x
f(x) is undefined if denominator becomes zero
.∴ x – 5 ≠ 0
⇒ x ≠ 5
Hence the domain is (−∞, 5) U (5, ∞)
Since x ≠ 5
∴ Range is {-1}.
13.(i) Let f = {(1, 6), (2, 5), (4, 3), (5, 2), (8, –1), (10, –3)} and g = {(2, 0), (3, 2), (5, 6), (7, 10), (8, 12), (10, 16)}. Find dom (f + g)
Solution: Given, f = {(1, 6), (2, 5), (4, 3), (5, 2), (8, –1), (10, –3)}
g = {(2, 0), (3, 2), (5, 6), (7, 10), (8, 12), (10, 16)}
∴ Domain of f = {1,2,4,5,8,10}
Domain of g = {2,3,5,7,8,10}
Domain of (f + g)
= {x : x ∈ Df ∩ Dg }
= {2, 5, 8, 10}.
13.(ii) Let f = {(1, 6), (2, 5), (4, 3), (5, 2), (8, –1), (10, –3)} and g = {(2, 0), (3, 2), (5, 6), (7, 10), (8, 12), (10, 16)}. Find dom (f/g)
Solution: Given, f = {(1, 6), (2, 5), (4, 3), (5, 2), (8, –1), (10, –3)}
g = {(2, 0), (3, 2), (5, 6), (7, 10), (8, 12), (10, 16)}
∴ Domain of f = {1,2,4,5,8,10}
Domain of g = {2,3,5,7,8,10}
Domain of (f/g)
= {x : x ∈ Df ∩ Dg and g (x) ≠ 0}
Domain of (f/g)
= {5, 8, 10}.
Solution: Given,f(x) = x – 1/x
Replacing x by 1/x
Again Replacing x by f(1/x)
Solution: Given,f(x) = kx/x+1
Replacing x by f(x)
⇒ k2x = x(kx + x + 1)
⇒ k2x = kx2 + x2 + x
or, 0.x2 + k2x = x2(k + 1) + x
∴ k + 1 = 0
⇒ k = -1
∴ Value of k = -1
16. Find the range of the function, f(x) = x/|x|
Solution: Given f(x) = x/|x|
If x < 0 then |x| = -x
∴ f(x) = x/|x| = x/-x = -1
If x ≥ 0 then |x| = x
∴ f(x) = x/|x| = x/x = 1
Hence output values of f(x) only 1 and -1.
∴ The range of the function is {1,-1}.
17. Find the domain of the function, f(x) = log |x|.
Solution: log function is not defined for x = 0.
∴ Domain of f(x) is R – {0}
Substitute (x + 1/x) = x,
Hence f(x) = x2 – 2
f(x) is defined if bx – a ≠ 0
⇒ bx ≠ a
⇒ x ≠ a/b
∴ Domain of the function is (-∞, a/b) U (a/b, ∞)
⇒ y(bx – a) = ax +b
⇒ bxy – ay = ax + b
or, bxy – ax = ay + b
⇒ x(by – a) = ay + b
⇒ x = ay + b/by – a
x is not defined when denominator is zero.
∴ by – a ≠ 0
⇒ y ≠ a/b
Range of the function is (-∞, a/b) U (a/b, ∞)
f(x) is defind if
f(x) ≥ 0
⇒ x – 1 ≥ 0
⇒ x ≥ 1
∴ Domain of the function is [1, ∞).
Range of the function is [0, +∞).
Q. 21. Write the domain and the range of the function, f(x) = –|x|.
Solution: |x| is defined for all real values.
Hence
-|x| is always less than or equal to 0.
∴ The domain of the function is R i.e. (-∞, +∞)
The range of the function is ( -∞, 0].
