    Function
    Function:
    An equationwill be a function if for any x in the domain of the equation, the equation
    will yield exactly one value of y .
    For example,
    Q.
    2
    1 y x is a function or not?
    Solution:
    2
    1 y x can also be written as,
    2
    ( ) 1 f x x
    Put 0 x we have
    2
    (0) 0 1 1 f For 0 x we have exactly one value of
    ( ) f x that is, 1.
    Put 1 x we have
    2
    (1) 1 1 2 f For 1 x we have exactly one value of
    ( ) f x that is, 2
    In the above equation, for any x in the domain of the equation, the equation will yield
    exactly one value of y. Hence, it is a function.
    Q.
    2
    1 y x is a function or not?
    Solution:
    Put 0 x in the above equation,
    2
    0 1 y
    2
    1 y
    1 y So, for 0 x we have 2 different values of y . Hence it is not a function.
    Even and Odd Function
    Even Function
    Suppose ( ) f x is a function, And if, ( ) ( ) f x f x then the function is EVEN.
    Odd Function
    Suppose ( ) f x is a function, And if, ( ) ( ) f x f x then the function is ODD.
    For example,
    Q. Whether the Function
    2
    ( ) f x x is Even or Odd?
    Solution
    Replace x by x .
    2 2
    ( ) ( ) f x x x Hence, ( ) ( ) f x f x The function is Even.

    Q. Whether the Function
    3
    ( ) f x x is Even or Odd?
    Solution
    Replace x by x .
    3 3
    ( ) ( ) f x x x Hence, ( ) ( ) f x f x The function is Odd.
    Domain and Range of a Function
    Domain of a Function
    The Domain of a function is the set of all values that could be put into a function and
    have the function exists and have a real number of value.
    So, for the domain we need to avoid division by zero, square root of negative numbers,
    logarithm of zeroes and negative numbers.
    Range of a Function
    The range of a Function is simply the set of all possible values that a function can take.
    For example,
    Q. Find Domain and Rangeof ( ) 2 7 f x x
    Solution
    In this function, we can put any value of x .
    Domain: ( , )
    Range: ( , )
    Q. Find Domain and Range of ( ) 4 2 f x x .
    Solution
    We could NOT have negative value in square root. So, 4 2 x 0
    4 2 0
    4 2
    2
    4
    1
    2
    x
    x
    x
    x

    Hence, domain:
    1
    [ , )
    2

    Range: [0, )

    f x
    x

    Q.76 IBA Entry Test BBA -2010


    Solution
    We cannot have 1 in the denominator for which the function is,
    1 1 1
    ( )
    1 1 1 0
    f x
    x


    does not exists
    Hence, Domain: All numbers except 1.
    Range: For different values of x the function will take different values.
    For 0 x , ( ) 1 f x
    For 1 x ,
    1
    2
    For 2 x , ( ) 1 f x
    Hence, Range could be any Real Value
    Answer: (D) The set of all Real Values.
