BITH 111 MATHEMATICAL FUNDATIONS

ASSIGNMENT 1
DUE DATE 9 SEPTEMBER 2017

QUESTION 1

Universal set = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9,11,16} P = {2,3,5,7,11} S = {1,4,9,16} M = {3,6,9}

(a) Draw a Venn diagram to show this information. [2]

b) Write down the value of n (M 'n P ). [3]

C) In
a survey, 100 students are asked if they like basketball (B), football (F) and
swimming(S). The Venn diagram shows the results.

42 students like swimming, 40 students like exactly one sport. Find the values of p, q, and r.

(i) Find the values of p, q and r. [3]


(ii) How many students like all three sports, [1]
(iii) Basketball and swimming but not football? [1]
Find
(v) n (B' ), [1]
(vi) n ((B∪F )n S ' ). [1]

QUESTION 2

a) Let A = {x, y, z}, B = {1, 2, 3, 4}, and C = {a, b, c}. Let R be the following relation
from A to B: R = {(x, 1), (x, 2), (y, 2), (y, 3), (z, 3)}, and S be the following relation
from B to C: S = {(1, a), (2, a), (2, b), (3, b), (4, b), (4, c)}. Compute the composition
of R and S. [4]

b) Give three different equivalence relations on the set {a, b, c, d}. [6]
c) Consumer Surveys. In a survey of 180 customers conducted in a shopping mall, 100
customers indicated that they buy Apples, 125 customers indicated that they buy
Bananas, and 64 indicated that they buy both fruits. How many customers participating
in the survey buy
i. At least one of these fruits? [3]
ii. Only Apples? [2]
iii. Exactly one of these fruits? [3]
iv. Neither of these fruits? [2]

QUESTION 3
a) Determine the domain of the following functions
1
i. [2]
𝑥−4

ii. √𝑥 − 7 + √7 − 𝑥 [3]

b) Functions g and h are given by g(x) = √(x − 1) and h(x) = x 2 + 1 find


i. (g o h)(x) [2]

ii. (h o g)-1 (x) [3]


c) Let f : Z → Z be defined by f(x) = 3x + 7. Prove that f is one-to-one. [4]
4
d) For each x ∈ [0, 1], let f(x) = 𝑥+1 . Prove that f is bijective from [0, 1] to [2, 4]. [6]

QUESTION 4

a) For the given argument

If Madeline wins the race, then Stephen loses the race.


Madeline did not win the race.
Therefore, Stephen won the race.
define the premises and the conclusion. Then represent the argument symbolically, and
determine if it is a valid argument by constructing its truth table. [6]

b) Given the expression (~(P ↔ (~P∨Q)) → ~R) , show the result using a truth table [7]
