Question:

Let \(R\) be a relation in \(\mathbb{N}\) defined by \(\{(x,y): x + 3y = 10, x,y \in \mathbb{N}\}\). Then the range of \(R\) is

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Concept: Range of a relation is the set of all possible values of $y$.

Step 1:
Form equation
\[ x + 3y = 10 \]

Step 2:
Find natural number solutions
\[ x = 10 - 3y \] For $x \in \mathbb{N}$: \[ 10 - 3y > 0 \Rightarrow y = 1,2,3 \]

Step 3:
Range
\[ \text{Range} = \{1,2,3\} \] Final Conclusion:
Option (D)
