Inverse Function

The inverse of a function f(x) swaps the input (x) and output (y) values, resulting in a new function f⁻¹(x).

Partially Ordered Set (Poset)

A set with a relationship that is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive, allowing comparison of elements.

Hasse Diagram

A graphical representation of a poset, highlighting the ordering relationships between elements.

Divisibility Relation

A relation where 'a divides b' means 'a' is a factor of 'b'.

Study Notes

Simple Cipher Function

  • A simple cipher codes a number using the function f(x) = 3x - 4
  • Find the inverse function
  • Determine if the inverse is a function
  • Verify symmetrical property about the line y = x

POSet Definition

  • Define POSet (Partially Ordered Set)
  • Show that (X, ≤) is a POSet
  • X = {a, b, c} (example set)
  • Draw the Hasse diagram for the power set of X

More POSet Examples

  • Define POSet
  • Show (X, ≤) is a POSet, where X = {a, b, c, d}
  • Draw Hasse diagram for the power set of X

Relation as POSet

  • Let A = {2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 36}
  • Relation R = {(a, b) | a divides b}
  • Show (A, R) is a POSet
  • Draw the Hasse diagram

Another Relation as POSet

  • Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24}
  • Relation R = {(a, b) | a divides b}
  • Show (A, R) is a POSet
  • Draw the Hasse diagram

Student Survey

  • 60 students total
  • 40 like math
  • 36 like science
  • 24 like both math and science
  • Calculate students who like:
    • Math only
    • Science only
    • Either math or science
    • Neither math nor science

Salesperson Earnings

  • Salesperson's annual earnings: A(x) = 30,000 + 0.04x
  • Son's annual earnings: S(x) = 25,000 + 0.05x
  • x = rupee value of merchandise
  • Find (A + S)(x)
  • Calculate total family income if they each sell ₹1,50,00,000 worth of merchandise

Equivalence Relation

  • Define Equivalence relation
  • Show that R = {(x, y) | x² = y²} is an equivalence relation on S = ℝ

Function Composition

  • f(x) = x²
  • g(x) = 3x
