Let $f: R \rightarrow R$ be defined by $f(x)=x^2+1$. Then,the pre-images of $17$ and $-3$ respectively are

If $Q$ denotes the set of all rational numbers and $f\left(\frac{p}{q}\right)=\sqrt{p^2-q^2}$ for any $\frac{p}{q} \in Q$,then observe the following statements.
$I$. $f\left(\frac{p}{q}\right)$ is real for each $\frac{p}{q} \in Q$.
$II$. $f\left(\frac{p}{q}\right)$ is a complex number for each $\frac{p}{q} \in Q$.
Which of the following is correct?

Let $f: X \rightarrow Y$ be a function and $A_y = f^{-1}(\{y\})$ for $y \in Y$. Then $A_i \cap A_j = \phi$ $(i \neq j)$ for all $i, j \in Y$ and $\bigcup_{y \in Y} A_y = X$,if

$A$ function $f$ is defined by $f(x) = 2x - 5$. Find the value of $f(-3)$.

The number of relations $R$ from an $m$-element set $A$ to an $n$-element set $B$ satisfying the condition $(a, b_1) \in R, (a, b_2) \in R \Rightarrow b_1 = b_2$ for $a \in A, b_1, b_2 \in B$ is
