Overspeeding increases fuel consumption and decreases fuel economy as a result of tyre
rolling friction and air resistance. While vehicles reach optimal fuel economy at different
speeds, fuel mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 80 km/h.

The relation between fuel consumption F (1/100 km) and speed V (km/h) under some
𝑉2 𝑉
constraints is given as 𝐹 = 500 − 4 + 14

On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions:

37 Sherlin and Danju are playing Ludo at home. While rolling the dice, Sherlin observed and noted
the possible outcomes of the throw every time belong to set{1,2,3,4,5,6}
Let A be the set of players while B be the set of all possible outcomes.
A= {S,D}, B={1,2,3,4,5,6}
On the basis of the above information answer the following questions.
i) Sherlin wants to know the number of function from A to B. How many functions are
possible?

ii) Sherlin wants to know the number of relations possible from A to B. How many
numbers of relations are possible?

iii) Let R be the relation on B, defined by R= {(1,1), (1,2), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4),
(5,5),(6,6)}.

Then check whether it is reflexive, symmetric and transitive. Is R a function?

38. The members of a consulting firm rent cars from three rental agencies- Agency X, Agency Y
and Agency Z. They rent 50% from agency X, 30% from agency Y and 20% from agency Z.
From past experience it is known that 9% of the cars from agency X need a service before
renting, 12% of cars from agency Y need service and 10% of cars from agency Z need service.

Assume that the rental car delivered to the firm needs service. Based upon this data answer
the following:

i) What is the probability that the car needs service before renting?

ii) If the rental car delivered to the firm needs service, find the probability that the car is

not rented from Z.
