Show that the function f: R rarr { x in R: -1 lt x lt 1 }defined by f(x)=(x)/(1+|x|), x in Risone- one and onto function . |

Answer» Solution : Let x, `y in R` and, f(x)=f(y) `rArrx/(1+|x|)=y/(1+|y|)` If x is positve and y is negative then `x gt y ` `rArrx-y gt 0 and 2xy LT 0 ` `thereforex/(1+x)=y/(1-y)` `rArry+ XY =x -xy` `rArr2xy = x-y` which is impossible then `f(x)=f(y)rArr (x)/(1+x)=(y)/(1+y)` `rArrx+y` If x and y both are negative then `f(x)=f(y)rArrx/(1-x)=y/(1-y)` `rArrx-xy = y-xy` `rArrx=y` Therefore , FIS one - one Let y `in ` R be such that `-1 lt y lt 1` If y is negative then `x=y/(1+y) in R` is such that `f(x)=f((y)/(1+y))=((y)/(1+y))/(1+|(y)/(1+y)|)=((y)/(1+y))/(1-y/(1+y))=y` IFY is positive then `x=y/(1-y) in R` is such that `f(x)=f(y/(1-y))=((y)/(1-y))/(1+((y)/(1-y)))=((y)/(1-y))/(1-y/(1+y))=y` `therefore` f is ONTO Therefore f is one - one onto . |
