If the set of all values of $a$ is $[\alpha, \beta] \cup [\gamma, \delta]$ for which the function $f(x) = \begin{cases} 3x + |a^2 - 4|; & a \leqslant x < 1 \\ 5 - x^2; & x \geqslant 1 \end{cases}$ has its largest value at $x = 1$,then find the value of $(\alpha + \beta + \gamma + \delta)$.

Let $f: X \rightarrow Y$ be a function and $A, B$ be non-void subsets of $Y$. Which of the following is true?

Let $R$ denote the set of all real numbers and $R^{+}$ denote the set of all positive real numbers. For the subsets $A$ and $B$ of $R$, define $f: A \rightarrow B$ by $f(x) = x^2$ for $x \in A$. Match the following lists:
| Column $I$ | Column $II$ |
| :--- | :--- |
| $A$. $f$ is one-one and onto, if | $1$. $A = R^{+}, B = R$ |
| $B$. $f$ is one-one but not onto, if | $2$. $A = B = R$ |
| $C$. $f$ is onto but not one-one, if | $3$. $A = R, B = R^{+}$ |
| $D$. $f$ is neither one-one nor onto, if | $4$. $A = B = R^{+}$ |

Let $A = \{1, 4, 7\}$ and $B = \{2, 3, 8\}$. Then the number of elements in the relation $R = \{((a_1, b_1), (a_2, b_2)) \in ((A \times B) \times (A \times B)) : a_1 + a_2 \text{ divides } b_2 + b_1\}$ is . . . . . . .

Let $A = \{a, b, c\}$ and $B = \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$. Then the number of elements in the set $C = \{ f : A \rightarrow B \mid 2 \in f(A) \text{ and } f \text{ is not one-one} \}$ is

Let $f(x) = a^x$ $(a > 0)$ be written as $f(x) = f_1(x) + f_2(x)$,where $f_1(x)$ is an even function and $f_2(x)$ is an odd function. Then $f_1(x + y) + f_1(x - y)$ equals
