What is a function?

  1. A relation between two sets where each element of the first set is paired with exactly one element of the second set

  2. A relation between two sets where each element of the first set is paired with at least one element of the second set

  3. A relation between two sets where each element of the first set is paired with at most one element of the second set

  4. A relation between two sets where each element of the first set is paired with more than one element of the second set


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A function is a special type of relation where each element of the domain (first set) is paired with exactly one element of the codomain (second set).

What is the domain of a function?

  1. The set of all elements in the first set

  2. The set of all elements in the second set

  3. The set of all elements that are paired with at least one element in the second set

  4. The set of all elements that are paired with exactly one element in the second set


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The domain of a function is the set of all elements in the first set that are paired with at least one element in the second set.

What is the codomain of a function?

  1. The set of all elements in the first set

  2. The set of all elements in the second set

  3. The set of all elements that are paired with at least one element in the second set

  4. The set of all elements that are paired with exactly one element in the second set


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The codomain of a function is the set of all elements in the second set that are paired with at least one element in the first set.

What is the range of a function?

  1. The set of all elements in the first set

  2. The set of all elements in the second set

  3. The set of all elements that are paired with at least one element in the second set

  4. The set of all elements that are paired with exactly one element in the second set


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The range of a function is the set of all elements in the second set that are paired with at least one element in the first set.

What is an injective function?

  1. A function where each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the codomain

  2. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at least one element of the codomain

  3. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at most one element of the codomain

  4. A function where each element of the domain is paired with more than one element of the codomain


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

An injective function is a function where each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the codomain.

What is a surjective function?

  1. A function where each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the codomain

  2. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at least one element of the codomain

  3. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at most one element of the codomain

  4. A function where each element of the domain is paired with more than one element of the codomain


Correct Option:
Explanation:

A surjective function is a function where each element of the codomain is paired with at least one element of the domain.

What is a bijective function?

  1. A function where each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the codomain

  2. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at least one element of the codomain

  3. A function where each element of the domain is paired with at most one element of the codomain

  4. A function where each element of the domain is paired with more than one element of the codomain


Correct Option:
Explanation:

A bijective function is a function that is both injective and surjective.

What is the inverse of a function?

  1. A function that undoes the original function

  2. A function that is the opposite of the original function

  3. A function that has the same domain and codomain as the original function

  4. A function that has the same range as the original function


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The inverse of a function is a function that undoes the original function, meaning that if you apply the inverse function to the output of the original function, you get the input.

What is a composition of functions?

  1. The process of combining two or more functions to create a new function

  2. The process of applying one function to the output of another function

  3. The process of finding the inverse of a function

  4. The process of determining the range of a function


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The composition of functions is the process of combining two or more functions to create a new function. The new function is obtained by applying the second function to the output of the first function.

What is an identity function?

  1. A function that maps each element of a set to itself

  2. A function that maps each element of a set to its inverse

  3. A function that maps each element of a set to its complement

  4. A function that maps each element of a set to its range


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

An identity function is a function that maps each element of a set to itself.

What is a constant function?

  1. A function that maps each element of a set to the same constant value

  2. A function that maps each element of a set to its inverse

  3. A function that maps each element of a set to its complement

  4. A function that maps each element of a set to its range


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A constant function is a function that maps each element of a set to the same constant value.
