If $*$ is defined by $a*b$ = $a - b^2$ and $\oplus$ is defined by $\oplus$ = $a^2 + b$, where a and b are integers, then ($3 \oplus 4) * 5$ is equal to
- 164
- 38
- -12
- -28
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
and $a \oplus b=a^{2}+b \,\,\,\,\,\dots(ii)$
where, $a$ and $b$ are integers.
Then, $(3 \oplus 4)^{*} 5 =\left\{(3)^{2}+4\right\}^{*} 5$
$=(9+4)^{*} 5=13^{*} 5 $
$=13-(5)^{2}=13-25=-12$

Functions
A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs with the property that each input is related to exactly one output. Let A & B be any two non-empty sets, mapping from A to B will be a function only when every element in set A has one end only one image in set B.
Kinds of Functions
The different types of functions are -
One to One Function: When elements of set A have a separate component of set B, we can determine that it is a one-to-one function. Besides, you can also call it injective.
Many to One Function: As the name suggests, here more than two elements in set A are mapped with one element in set B.
Moreover, if it happens that all the elements in set B have pre-images in set A, it is called an onto function or surjective function.
Also, if a function is both one-to-one and onto function, it is known as a bijective. This means, that all the elements of A are mapped with separate elements in B, and A holds a pre-image of elements of B.
