If R denotes the set of all real number, then the function f: R R defined f(x)=|x| is
Options
- Aone-one only
- Bonto only
- Cboth one-one and onto
- Dneither one-one nor onto
Correct answer
D. neither one-one nor onto
Step-by-step solution
We have, array lrlrl & & f(x) & =|x| Now, & f(1) & =|1|=1 and & f(-1) & =|-1|=1 & & f(1) & =f(-1) but 1 -1 array So, f(x) is not one-one. Again, |x| 0, x R So, range of f(x)=[0, ] Range Co-domain So, f(x) is not onto.
