So, the half plane for the inequality of the line ( ii) is towards the origin which means that
the origin O(0,0) is a point in the feasible region of the inequality of the line ( ii). Secondly,
draw the graph of the line x + y = 60.Hence the table of values of the line ( iii) is given as
follows.
x 0 60
y 60 0
0 + 0 ≥ 60 ⇒ 0 ≥ 60 (which is false)
So, the half plane for the inequality of the line ( iii) is away from the origin, which means
that the origin is not a point on the feasible region . Thirdly, draw the graph of the line x -
2y = 0 and the table of values for ( iv) is given as follows

Injectivity: Let n and m be any two odd real numbers. If f (n) = f (m) , then:
n − 1 = m −1 n = m.
Again, let n and m be any two even whole numbers. If f (n) = f (m) , then:

n=m
Again, let n, m be any two even whole numbers, then f(n) = f(m)
⇒n+1=m+1
⇒n=m

Surjectivity: Let n be an arbitrary whole number.
If n is an odd number, then there exists an even whole number (n + 1) such that f(n + 1) =
n+1-1=n
If n is an even number, then there exists an odd whole number (n - 1) such that f(n - 1) =

For f −1 : y = n – 1
⇒ n = y + 1 and y = n + 1
