Functions 3 Question 6

6. If f(x)=3x5, then f1(x)

(1998,2M)

(a) is given by 13x5

(b) is given by x+53

(c) does not exist because f is not one-one

(d) does not exist because f is not onto

Answer:

Correct Answer: 6. (a)

Solution:

  1. We have a function f:AR defined as, f(x)=2xx1

One-one Let x1,x2A such that

f(x1)=f(x2)2x1x11=2x2x212x1x22x1=2x1x22x2x1=x2

Thus, f(x1)=f(x2) has only one solution, x1=x2

f(x) is one-one (injective)

Onto Let x=2, then f(2)=2×221=4

But x=2 is not in the domain, and f(x) is one-one function

f(x) can never be 4

Similarly, f(x) can not take many values.

Hence, f(x) is into (not surjective).

f(x) is injective but not surjective.
