f ( x ) = 2 x − 1         g : R − { 1 } → R        

g ( x ) = x − 1 / 2 x − 1           

f { g ( x ) } = 2 ( x − 1 / 2 x − 1 ) − 1 = 2 x − 1 − x + 1 x − 1 = x x − 1 , x ≠ 1           

y = x x − 1 ⇒ x = y y − 1 ∴ y ≠ 1           

One – one but not onto

f ( x ) = 4 x 3 − 3 x 2 6 − 2 s i n x + ( 2 x − 1 ) c o s x      

f ' ( x ) = 2 x 2 − x − 2 c o s x + 2 c o s x − ( 2 x − 1 ) s i n x     

= ( 2 x − 1 ) ( x − s i n x ) ≥ 0     f o r     x ≥ 0  

  f ' ( x ) ≥ 0 ∀ x ≥ 1 / 2          

∴ f ( x ) is increasing in [ 1 2 , ∞ )

4 s i n x + 1 1 − s i n x = a ∀ x ∈ ( 0 , π 2 )  

 Let sin x = t, t ∈ (0, 1)

g ( t ) = 4 t + 1 1 − t

g ' ( t ) = 0 ⇒ t = 2 3

g ' ' ( 2 3 ) > 0

∴ g ( t ) m i n i m u m = 4 2 / 3 + 1 1 − 2 / 3 = 9  

 Minimum value of a for which solution exist = 9

f : N ->N

f (n + 1) = f (n) + f (1)

Let f (1) = a, a  ∈ N

f (2) = f (1) + f (1) = 2a

f (3) = f (2) + f (1) = 3a

and so on

->f (m) = ma, m, a  ∈ N

->f is one – one, Þ option (2) is true.

Suppose f (g (x) is one-one

then f (g (x1) ≠ f (g (x2) for x1 ≠  x2

->g (x1) ≠ g (x2) (as f is one-one)

f (m + n) = f (m) + f (n)

put m = n = 1, f (2) = f (1) + f (1)

again put m = 2, n = 1, f (3) = f (2) + f (1)

and put m = 3, n = 3, f (3 + 3) = f (3) + f (3), 2f (3) = f (6) = 18 Þ f (3) = 9

f (3) = 3f (1)

f (1) = 3, f (2) = 6

f (2).f (3) = 54

  f ( x ) = s i n − 1 ( 3 x 2 + x − 1 ( x − 1 ) 2 ) + c o s − 1 ( x − 1 x + 1 )

Domain of sin1 ( 3 x 2 + x − 1 ( x − 1 ) 2 )  is

− 1 ≤ 3 s 2 + x − 1 ( x − 1 ) 2 ≤ 1

  − x 2 − 1 + 2 x ≤ 3 x 2 + x − 1 and 3 x 2 + x − 1 ≤ x 2 + 1 − 2 x

Domain of the function is [ 1 4 , 1 2 ] ∪ { 0 } .
