Question

Let = {(1,1), (2,3), (0, −1), (−1, −3) … } be a function from Z to Z defined by () = + ,

for some integers and . Determine and .​

Answer 1

Answer:

f={(1,1),(2,3),(0,−1),(−1,−3)}

f(x)=ax+b

(1,1)∈f

⇒f(1)=1

⇒a×1+b=1

⇒a+b=1 .....(1)

(0,−1)∈f

⇒f(0)=−1

⇒a×0+b=−1

⇒b=−1

On substituting b=−1 in eqn (1), we get

a+(−1)=1

⇒a=1+1=2

Thus the respective values of a and b are 2 and −1
