Solutions for QAT110702

1. Since in A ∩ B = {3, 5}, the set B should contain the (  f(x + y) = f(x) f(y))
elements 3 and 5. The element 6, should not be present f (h) − 1
in B as it does not figure in A ∩ B. ⇒ f(0) lim = 9 → (1)
h→0 h
Now, the remaining elements of µ i.e., 1, 2, 4 and 7 Now, f(x + y) = f(x) × f(y) for all x, y ∈ R
may or may not belong to B
⇒ f(0 + 0) = f(0) × f(0) = f(0) ⇒ f(0) = 1 → (2)
∴ 24 i.e., 16 such subsets are possible. Choice (1)
f (h) − 1
∴from (1) and (2) lim =9
2. On solving the determinant, we get a linear equation, h→0 h
Hence the given determinant represents a straight line  f (h) − 1 
