The TMA covers only chapters 1, 2, 4, 6 and 7 and consists of eight questions for
a total of 40 marks. Please solve each question in the space provided. You should
give the details of your solutions and not just the final results.
Q−1: [4+4 marks]
a) Determine whether the proposition (((𝑝 ∨ 𝑞) ∧ (𝑝 ⟶ 𝑟)) ∧ (𝑞 ⟶ 𝑟)) ⟶ 𝑟
is a tautology.
b) Let 𝑈 = {𝑥 ∈ 𝑍| − 2 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 10} be a universal set and let 𝐴 = {𝑥 ∈ 𝑁|1 ≤
𝑥 < 5} and 𝐵 = {𝑥 ∈ 𝑍|1 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 6} be sets. Find
̅̅̅̅̅̅̅.
i. The sets (𝐴 − 𝐵) ∪ (𝐵 − 𝐴) and 𝐴⨁𝐵
ii. The power set 𝑃(𝐴).

Q−2: [2+3+3 marks]
a) Find integers 𝑎 and 𝑏 such that 𝑎 + 𝑏 ≡ 𝑎 − 𝑏 (mod 5).
b) Find the GCD and LCM for the numbers 2772 and 37800.
c) Encrypt the message “I NEED HELP” by translating the letters into
numbers, applying the encryption function
𝑓(𝑥) = (3𝑥 + 7) mod 26, 0 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 25,
and then translating the numbers back into letters.

Q−3: [4×2] Let 𝑔(𝑥) = 5𝑥 2 + 3 and ℎ(𝑥) = 7𝑥 − 4 be the functions from 𝑅 to 𝑅.
a) Find 𝑔 ∘ ℎ.
b) Is 𝑔 onto? Is g one-to-one? Explain you answer.
c) Check whether 𝑔−1 exists. If it is so, define 𝑔−1 . Otherwise, provide a
reason for not existence of 𝑔−1 .
d) Check whether ℎ−1 exists. If it is so, define ℎ−1 . Otherwise, provide a reason
for not existence of ℎ−1 .
