Let f : R → R be defined as f x = 2 x - 1 and g : R - 1 → R . be defined as g x = x - 1 2 x - 1 . Then the composition function f g x is:
Options
- Aneither one-one nor onto
- Bone-one but not onto
- Conto but not one-one
- Dboth one-one and onto
Correct answer
B. one-one but not onto
Step-by-step solution
f g x = 2 g x - 1 = 2 2 x - 1 2 x - 1 - 1 . = x x - 1 = 1 + 1 x - 1 Range of f g x = R - 1 Range of f g x is not onto & f g x is one-one So f g x is one-one but not onto. one-one, into
