1. Which of the following represent a mapping?
(a) {(4, 2); (5, 3); (7, 5); (9, 7)}
(b) {(2, 8); (3, 12); (4, 16)}
(c) {(3, 7); (3, 11); (4, 9); (5, 11)}
(d) {(1, 2); (2, 3); (3, 4); (4, 5)}
(e) {(2, 1); (3, 1); (5, 1); (7, 1)}
(f) {(1, 3); (1, 5); (2, 5)}
5. Let A = {1, 2, 3} B = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15}. Draw the arrow diagram to represent the rule 𝑓(𝑥) = 3𝑥 from A
to B.

7. Let A = {2, 3, 4} and B = {5, 9, 13}. Consider the rule 𝑓(𝑥) = 4𝑥 − 3, where 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴.
(a) Show that 𝑓 is a mapping from A to B.
(b) Find the domain and range of the mapping.
(c) Draw the arrow diagram to represent the mapping.
Answers
3. 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟐𝒙 − 𝟑.
(e) 𝑓(0) = 2(0) − 3 = −3,
(f) 𝑓(−2) = 2(−2) − 3 = −4 − 3 = −7,
(g) 𝑓(3) = 2(3) − 3 = 6 − 3 = 3,
(h) 𝑓(−1) = 2(−1) − 3 = −2 − 3 = −5.
4. Find the domain and range of each of the following functions.
(d) Domain=N, Range= {1, 0, −1, −2. . . },
(e) Domain=W, Range= {1, 2, 5, 10, 17 … },
(f) Domain=R Range=R.
5. Arrow diagram to represent the rule 𝑓(𝑥) = 3𝑥 from A to B.
6.
(c) Domain= {3, 8} ≠ 𝐴 hence not a mapping.
(d) Elements 3, 11 do not have unique image in B hence not a mapping.
7.
(d) Ordered pairs {(2, 5), (3, 9), (4, 13)}.
(e) Domain= {2, 3, 4} Range= {5, 9, 13}.
