Q103
Let A={1,2,3,4}\mathrm{A}=\{1,2,3,4\} and B={1,4,9,16}\mathrm{B}=\{1,4,9,16\}. Then the number of many-one functions f:ABf: \mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{B} such that 1f( A)1 \in f(\mathrm{~A}) is equal to :
A 151
B 139
C 163
D 127
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
Step 1: Total Functions with 1f(A)\textbf{Step 1: Total Functions with } 1 \in f(A)

Any function f:AB f: A \to B where A={1,2,3,4} A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} and B={1,4,9,16} B = \{1, 4, 9, 16\} is defined by choosing one of the four elements of B B for each element of A A .

Thus, the total number of functions is

44=256.4^4 = 256.

To count those functions where 1 1 appears at least once in the set f(A) f(A) , we can use the complementary counting method: subtract the functions that never use 1 1 .

If 1 1 is excluded, each element of A A has only 3 choices (namely, {4,9,16} \{4, 9, 16\} ), so the number of such functions is

34=81.3^4 = 81.

Thus, the number of functions such that 1f(A) 1 \in f(A) is

25681=175.256 - 81 = 175.
Step 2: Counting Many-One Functions\textbf{Step 2: Counting Many-One Functions}

In this context, "many-one functions" are understood to be non-injective functions.

Since an injective (one-to-one) function from A A to B B must be a permutation (because both sets have 4 elements), the number of one-to-one functions is

4!=24.4! = 24.

It is important to note that every injective function f:AB f: A \to B has f(A)=B f(A) = B (a full permutation) which automatically means 1f(A) 1 \in f(A) .

Thus, the number of many-one (non-injective) functions f:AB f: A \to B with 1f(A) 1 \in f(A) is found by subtracting the one-to-one functions from the total functions that include 1 1 :

17524=151.175 - 24 = 151.
151\boxed{151}

This detailed explanation shows that the number of many-one functions f:AB f: A \rightarrow B such that 1f(A) 1 \in f(A) is indeed 151 151 .

Q104
Let f:[0,3]f:[0,3] \rightarrow A be defined by f(x)=2x315x2+36x+7f(x)=2 x^3-15 x^2+36 x+7 and g:[0,)Bg:[0, \infty) \rightarrow B be defined by g(x)=x2025x2025+1g(x)=\dfrac{x^{2025}}{x^{2025}+1}, If both the functions are onto and S={xZ;xAS=\{ x \in Z ; x \in A or xB}x \in B \}, then n(S)n(S) is equal to :
A 29
B 31
C 30
D 36
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

as f(x)f(x) is onto hence AA is range of f(x)f(x)

 now f(x)=6x230x+36=6(x2)(x3)\text{ now } \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =6 x^2-30 x+36 \\ & =6(x-2)(x-3) \end{aligned}
f(2)=1660+72+7=35f(2)=16-60+72+7=35
f(3)=54135+108+7=34f(0)=7\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{f}(3)=54-135+108+7=34 \\ & \mathrm{f}(0)=7 \end{aligned}

hence range [7,35]=A\in[7,35]=\mathrm{A} also for range of g(x)g(x)

g(x)=11x2025+1[0,1)=Bs={0,7,8,..35} hence n(s)=30\begin{aligned} & g(x)=1-\frac{1}{x^{2025}+1} \in[0,1)=B \\ & s=\{0,7,8, \ldots . .35\} \text{ hence } n(s)=30 \end{aligned}
Q105
Let f(x)=logexf(x)=\log _{\mathrm{e}} x and g(x)=x42x3+3x22x+22x22x+1g(x)=\dfrac{x^4-2 x^3+3 x^2-2 x+2}{2 x^2-2 x+1}. Then the domain of fgf \circ g is
A (0,)(0, \infty)
B [1,)[1, \infty)
C R\mathbb{R}
D [0,)[0, \infty)
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
f(x)=lnxg(x)=x42x3+3x22x+22x22x+1DgRDf(0,)\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\ln x \\ & g(x)=\frac{x^4-2 x^3+3 x^2-2 x+2}{2 x^2-2 x+1} \\ & D_g \in R \\ & D_f \in(0, \infty) \end{aligned}

For Dfogg(x)>0D_{f o g} \Rightarrow g(x)>0

x42x3+3x22x+22x22x+1>0x42x3+3x22x+2>0\begin{aligned} & \frac{x^4-2 x^3+3 x^2-2 x+2}{2 x^2-2 x+1}>0 \\ & \Rightarrow x^4-2 x^3+3 x^2-2 x+2>0 \end{aligned}

Clearly $\mathrm{x}

Q106
Let f(x)=2x+2+1622x+1+2x+4+32f(x)=\dfrac{2^{x+2}+16}{2^{2 x+1}+2^{x+4}+32}. Then the value of 8(f(115)+f(215)++f(5915))8\left(f\left(\dfrac{1}{15}\right)+f\left(\dfrac{2}{15}\right)+\ldots+f\left(\dfrac{59}{15}\right)\right) is equal to
A 108
B 92
C 118
D 102
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
f(x)=42x+162.22x+16.2x+32f(x)=2(2x+4)22x+8.2x+16f(x)=22x+4f(4x)=2x2(2x+4)f(x)+f(4x)=12\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\frac{42^x+16}{2.2^{2 x}+16.2^x+32} \\ & f(x)=\frac{2\left(2^x+4\right)}{2^{2 x}+8.2^x+16} \\ & f(x)=\frac{2}{2^x+4} \\ & f(4-x)=\frac{2^x}{2\left(2^x+4\right)} \\ & f(x)+f(4-x)=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}

So, f(115)+f(5915)=12\quad \mathrm{f}\left(\dfrac{1}{15}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(\dfrac{59}{15}\right)=\dfrac{1}{2}

 Similarly =f(2915)+f(3115)=12f(3015)=f(2)=222+4=28=148(29×12+14)\begin{aligned} & \text{ Similarly }=f\left(\frac{29}{15}\right)+f\left(\frac{31}{15}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \\ & f\left(\frac{30}{15}\right)=f(2)=\frac{2}{2^2+4}=\frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4} \\ & \Rightarrow 8\left(29 \times \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}\right) \end{aligned}

Ans. 118

Q107
The function f:(,)(,1)f:(-\infty, \infty) \rightarrow(-\infty, 1), defined by f(x)=2x2x2x+2xf(x)=\dfrac{2^x-2^{-x}}{2^x+2^{-x}} is :
A One-one but not onto
B Onto but not one-one
C Both one-one and onto
D Neither one-one nor onto
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
f(x)=22x122x+1=1222x+1f(x)=2(22x+1)2222xln2 i.e always +ve\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\frac{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}-1}{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1} \\ & =1-\frac{2}{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1} \\ & \mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=\frac{2}{\left(2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1\right)^2} \cdot 2 \cdot 2^{2 \mathrm{x}} \cdot \ln 2 \text{ i.e always }+\mathrm{ve} \end{aligned}

so f(x)f(x) is \uparrow function

f()=1f()=1f(x)(1,1) co-domain \begin{aligned} & \therefore \mathrm{f}(-\infty)=-1 \\ & \mathrm{f}(\infty)=1 \\ & \therefore \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \in(-1,1) \neq \text{ co-domain } \end{aligned}

so function is one-one but not onto

Q108
If f(x)=2x2x+2,xRf(x)=\dfrac{2^x}{2^x+\sqrt{2}}, \mathrm{x} \in \mathbb{R}, then k=181f(k82)\sum\limits_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{81} f\left(\dfrac{\mathrm{k}}{82}\right) is equal to
A 8282
B 81281 \sqrt{2}
C 4141
D 812\dfrac{81}{2}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
f(x)=2x2x+2f(x)+f(1x)=2x2x+2+21x21x+2=2x2x+2+22+22x=2x+22x+2=1\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\frac{2^x}{2^x+\sqrt{2}} \\ & f(x)+f(1-x)=\frac{2^x}{2^x+\sqrt{2}}+\frac{2^{1-x}}{2^{1-x}+\sqrt{2}} \\ & =\frac{2^x}{2^x+\sqrt{2}}+\frac{2}{2+\sqrt{2} 2^x}=\frac{2^x+\sqrt{2}}{2^x+\sqrt{2}}=1 \end{aligned}
 Now, k=181f(k82)=f(182)+f(282)++f(8182)=f(182)+f(282)+.+f(1282)+f(1182)=[f(182)+f(1182)]+[f(282)+f(1282)]+..40 cases +f(4182)\begin{array}{r} \text{ Now, } \sum_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{81} \mathrm{f}\left(\frac{\mathrm{k}}{82}\right)=\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{1}{82}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{2}{82}\right)+\ldots \ldots+\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{81}{82}\right) \\ =\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{1}{82}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{2}{82}\right)+\ldots \ldots .+\mathrm{f}\left(1-\frac{2}{82}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(1-\frac{1}{82}\right) \\ =\left[\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{1}{82}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(1-\frac{1}{82}\right)\right]+\left[\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{2}{82}\right)+\mathrm{f}\left(1-\frac{2}{82}\right)\right]+\ldots . .40 \text{ cases }+\mathrm{f}\left(\frac{41}{82}\right) \end{array}

Q109
Let f:RRf: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R} be a function defined by f(x)=(2+3a)x2+(a+2a1)x+b,a1f(x)=(2+3 a) x^2+\left(\dfrac{a+2}{a-1}\right) x+b, a \neq 1. If f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+127xyf(x+y)=f(x)+f(\mathrm{y})+1-\dfrac{2}{7} x \mathrm{y}, then the value of 28i=15f(i)28 \sum\limits_{i=1}^5|f(i)| is
A 735
B 675
C 715
D 545
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
f(x)=(3a+2)x2+(a+2a1)x+bf(x+12)=f(x)+f(y)+127xy.... (1)\begin{aligned} & f(x)=(3 a+2) x^2+\left(\frac{a+2}{a-1}\right) x+b \\ & f\left(x+\frac{1}{2}\right)=f(x)+f(y)+1-\frac{2}{7} x y\quad\text{.... (1)} \end{aligned}

In (1) Put x=y=0f(0)=2f(0)+1f(0)=1x=y=0 \Rightarrow f(0)=2 f(0)+1 \Rightarrow f(0)=-1 So, f(0)=0+0+b=1 b=1\mathrm{f}(0)=0+0+\mathrm{b}=-1 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~b}=-1

 In (1) Put y=xf(0)=f(x)+f(x)+1+27x21=2(3a+2)x2+2b+1+27x2\begin{aligned} & \text{ In (1) Put } y=-x \Rightarrow f(0)=f(x)+f(-x)+1+\frac{2}{7} x^2 \\ & -1=2(3 a+2) x^2+2 b+1+\frac{2}{7} x^2 \end{aligned}
1=(2(3a+2)+27)x2+126a+4+27=0a=57\begin{aligned} & -1=\left(2(3 a+2)+\frac{2}{7}\right) x^2+1-2 \\ & \Rightarrow 6 a+4+\frac{2}{7}=0 \\ & a=-\frac{5}{7} \end{aligned}

So f(x)=17x234x1\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=-\dfrac{1}{7} \mathrm{x}^2-\dfrac{3}{4} \mathrm{x}-1

f(x)=1284x2+21x+28\Rightarrow|\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})|=\frac{1}{28}\left|4 \mathrm{x}^2+21 \mathrm{x}+28\right|

Now, 28i=15f(i)=28(f(1)+f(2)++f(5))28 \sum_{i=1}^5|f(i)|=28(|f(1)|+|f(2)|+\ldots+|f(5)|) 28128675=67528 \cdot \dfrac{1}{28} \cdot 675=675

Q110
If the range of the function f(x)=5xx23x+2, x1,2, f(x) = \dfrac{5-x}{x^2 - 3x + 2} , \ x \neq 1, 2, is (,α][β,) (-\infty , \alpha] \cup [\beta, \infty) , then α2+β2 \alpha^2 + \beta^2 is equal to :
A 188
B 192
C 190
D 194
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
y=5xx23x+2yx23xy+2y+x5=0yz2+(3y+1)x+(2y5)=0\begin{aligned} & y=\frac{5-x}{x^2-3 x+2} \\ & y x^2-3 x y+2 y+x-5=0 \\ & y z^2+(-3 y+1) x+(2 y-5)=0 \end{aligned}

Case I : If y=0y=0 (Accepted)

x=5\Rightarrow x=5

Case II : If y0y \neq 0

D0(3y+1)24(y)(2y5)09y2+16y8y2+20y0y2+14y+10(y+7)2480y+743y+743 or y+743y437 or y437\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{D} \geq 0 \\ & (-3 y+1)^2-4(y)(2 y-5) \geq 0 \\ & 9 y^2+1-6 y-8 y^2+20 y \geq 0 \\ & y^2+14 y+1 \geq 0 \\ & (y+7)^2-48 \geq 0 \\ & |y+7| \geq 4 \sqrt{3} \\ & \Rightarrow y+7 \geq 4 \sqrt{3} \text{ or } \mathrm{y}+7 \leq-4 \sqrt{3} \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{y} \geq 4 \sqrt{3}-7 \text{ or } \mathrm{y} \leq-4 \sqrt{3}-7 \end{aligned}

From Case I and Case II

y(,437][437,)y \in(-\infty,-4 \sqrt{3}-7] \cup[4 \sqrt{3}-7, \infty)
 So α=437β=437a2+b2=(437)2+(437)2=2(48+49)=194\begin{aligned} & \text{ So } \alpha=-4 \sqrt{3}-7 \\ & \quad \beta=4 \sqrt{3}-7 \\ & \begin{aligned} \Rightarrow a^2+b^2 & =(-4 \sqrt{3}-7)^2+(4 \sqrt{3}-7)^2 \\ & =2(48+49) \\ & =194 \end{aligned} \end{aligned}
