Let A = R – {3} and B = R – {1}. Consider the function f : A → B defined by
A = R - {3}, B = R - {1}
f: A → B is defined as.
.
∴ f is one-one.
Let y ∈B = R - {1}. Then, y ≠ 1.
The function f is onto if there exists x ∈A such that f(x) = y.
Now,
Thus, for any y ∈ B, there existssuch that
Hence, function f is one-one and onto.
In each of the following cases, state whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer.
(i) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 – 4x
(ii) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 1 + x2
Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = |x|, is neither oneone nor onto, where | x | is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is – x, if x is negative.
Prove that the Greatest Integer Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = [x], is neither one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
Show that the Signum Function f : R → R, given by
is neither one-one nor onto.
The total revenue in Rupees received from the sale of x units of a product is given by
R (x) = 13x2 + 26x + 15
Find the marginal revenue when x = 7.
In each of the following cases, state whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer.
(i) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 – 4x
(ii) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 1 + x2
Let f : N → N be defined by
State whether the function f is bijective. Justify your answer.
Show that the function f : R* → R* defined by f(x) = 1/x is one-one and onto,where R* is the set of all non-zero real numbers. Is the result true, if the domain R* is replaced by N with co-domain being same as R* ?
If f(x) = , show that fof(x) = x, for all x ≠ 2/3. What is the inverse of f ?
