Form 4: Chapter 1 (Functions) SPM Practice Fully Worked Solutions

1. The document defines several functions and relations based on ordered pairs and diagrams. 2. It examines the inverse of various functions, including finding g^-1(7)=2 and h^-1(x)=3kx+3/2. 3. It also analyzes the properties of relations, such as whether they are one-to-one, many-to-one, or onto. For example, the relation between sets P and Q is many-to-one.

(a) The range is {3, 7}.

3 and 7 are linked to object(s) but 5
and 11 are not linked to any object.
Therefore, the range is {3, 7}.
(b) The above relation is a many-to-one
relation.

Element 7 in the codomain is
linked to two elements, i.e. 28
and 49 in the domain. Therefore,
it is a many-to-one relation.

It is given that h(x) = 3x + 1.
Hence, h[g(x)] = 3g(x) + 1.
