Exercise 1.3 Class 10 Maths Samacheer Question 2.
Let X = {3, 4, 6, 8}. Determine whether the relation R = {(x, f(x))|x ∈ X, f(x) = x2 + 1} is a function from X to N ?
Solution:
x = {3,4, 6, 8}
R = ((x, f(x))|x ∈ X, f(x) = X2 + 1}
f(x) = x2 + 1
f(3) = 32 + 1 = 10
f(4) = 42 + 1 = 17
f(6) = 62 + 1 = 37
f(8) = 82 + 1 = 65

R = {(3, 10), (4, 17), (6, 37), (8, 65)}
Yes, R is a function from X to N.

Ex 1.3 Class 10 Samacheer Question 3.
Given the function
f : x → x2 – 5x + 6, evaluate
(i) f(-1)
(ii) f(2 a)
(iii) f(2)
(iv) f(x – 1)
f(x) = x2 – 5x + 6
(i) f (-1) = (-1)2 – 5 (-1) + 6 = 1 + 5 + 6 = 12
(ii) f (2a) = (2a)2 – 5 (2a) + 6 = 4a2 – 10a + 6
(iii) f(2) = 22 – 5(2) + 6 = 4 – 10 + 6 = 0
(iv) f(x – 1) = (x – 1)2 – 5 (x – 1) + 6
= x2 – 2x + 1 – 5x + 5 + 6
= x2 – 7x + 12

(iii) Domain = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
= {x |0 < x < 10, x ∈ R}
Range = {x|0 < x < 9, x ∈ R}
= {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
(iv) The image of 6 under f is 5.

10th Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 5.
Let f(x) = 2x + 5. If x ≠ 0 then find $$\frac{f(x+2)-f(2)}{x}$$
Solution:
Given f(x) = 2x + 5, x ≠ 0.

Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 6.
A function fis defined by f(x) = 2x – 3
(i) find $$\frac{f(0)+f(1)}{2}$$
(ii) find x such that f(x) = 0.
(iii) find x such that f(x) = x.
(iv) find x such that f(x) = f(1 – x).
Solution:
Given f(x) = 2x – 3
(i) find $$\frac{f(0)+f(1)}{2}$$
f(0) = 2(0) – 3 = -3
f(1) = 2(1) – 3 = -1
∴ $$\frac{f(0)+f(1)}{2}=\frac{-3-1}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}$$ = -2

(ii) f(x) = 0
⇒ 2x – 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = $$\frac{3}{2}$$

(iii) f(x) = x
⇒ 2x – 3 = x ⇒ 2x – x = 3
x = 3

(iv) f(x) = f(1 – x)
2x – 3 = 2(1 – x) – 3
2x – 3 = 2x – 2x – 3
2x + 2x = 2 – 3 + 3
4x = 2
x = $$\frac{2}{4}$$
x = $$\frac{1}{2}$$

10 Std Maths Exercise 1.3 VQuestion 7.
An open box is to be made from a square piece of material, 24 cm on a side, by cutting equal squares from the corners and turning up the sides as shown in figure. Express the volume V of the box as a function of x.

Solution:
Volume of the box = Volume of the cuboid
= l × b × h cu. units
Here l = 24 – 2x
b = 24 – 2x
h = x
∴ V = (24 – 2x) (24 – 2x) × x
= (576 – 48x – 48x + 4x2)x
V = 4x3 – 96x2 + 576x

10 Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 8.
A function f is defined bv f(x) = 3 – 2x . Find x such that f(x2) = (f(x))2.
Solution:
f(x) = 3 – 2x
f(x2) = 3 – 2x2

10th Maths Exercise 1.3 In Tamil Question 9.
A plane is flying at a speed of 500 km per hour. Express the distance d travelled by the plane as function of time r in hours.
Speed of the plane = 500 km/hr
Distance travelled in “t” hours
= 500 × t (distance = speed × time)
= 500 t

10th Maths 1.3 Question 10.
The data in the adjacent table depicts the length of a woman’s forehand and her corresponding height. Based on this data, a student finds a relationship between the height (y) and the forehand length(x) as y = ax + b, where a, b are constants.

(i) Check if this relation is a function.
(ii) Find a and b.
(iii) Find the height of a woman whose forehand length is 40 cm.
(iv) Find the length of forehand of a woman if her height is 53.3 inches.
Solution:
(i) Given y = ax + b …………. (1)
The ordered pairs are R = {(35, 56) (45, 65) (50, 69.5) (55, 74)}
∴ Hence this relation is a function.

Substituting a = 0.9 in (2) we get
⇒ 65 = 45(.9) + b
⇒ 65 = 40.5 + b
⇒ b = 65 – 40.5
⇒ b = 24.5
∴ a = 0.9, b = 24.5
∴ y = 0.9x + 24.5
(iii) Given x = 40 , y = ?
∴ (4) → y = 0.9 (40) + 24.5
⇒ y = 36 + 24.5
⇒ y = 60.5 inches
(iv) Given y = 53.3 inches, x = ?
(4) → 53.3 = 0.9x + 24.5
⇒ 53.3 – 24.5 = 0.9x
⇒ 28.8 = 0.9x
⇒ x = $$\frac{28.8}{0.9}$$ = 32 cm
∴ When y = 53.3 inches, x = 32 cm
