What is Relation define it and explain domain and range of the relation. Let A= {1,2,3,
.,14) and R be a relation from A to A such that R = {(x,y): 3x - y = 0, where x,y E Z}.Write
its domain , codomain and range.
Answers
Relation:- A relation R from a non empty set A to a non empty set B is a subset of the cartesian product A×B.
Domain:-Domain is a set of all first elements of the ordered pair in a relation.
Range:-Range is the set of all second elements of the ordered pair in a relation
R={(x,y):3x-y=0,where x,y E A}={(1,3),(2,6),(3,9),(4,12)}
please see the above image .....
Domain={1,2,3,4}
Co-domain={1,2,3,4........14}
Range={3,6,9,12}
It is given that the relation R from A to A is given by R = {(x, y): 3x – y = 0, where x, y ∈ A}.
It means that R = {(x, y) : 3x = y, where x, y ∈ A}
Hence, R = {(1, 3), (2, 6), (3, 9), (4, 12)}
We know that the domain of R is defined as the set of all first elements of the ordered pairs in the given relation.
Hence, the domain of R = {1, 2, 3, 4}
To determine the codomain, we know that the entire set A is the codomain of the relation R.
Therefore, the codomain of R = A = {1, 2, 3,…,14}
As it is known that, the range of R is defined as the set of all second elements in the relation ordered pair.
