Which of the following functions is one-one?
(a) f:R→R defined as f(x)=esgnx+ex2
(b) f:[−1,∞)→(0,∞) defined by f(x)=ex2+|x|
(c) f:[3,4]→[4,6] defined by f(x)=|x−1|+|x−2|+|x−3|+|x−4|
(d) f(x)=ln(cos(sinx))
(a) f(x)=esgnx+ex2
when x=0 when x>0 then f(0)=2 then f(x)=e+ex2
when x<0 then f(x)=1e+ex2
(b) We have f(x)=ex2+|x|,x∈[−1,∞)
clearly f(−1)=e2=f(1)
also x2+|x|≥0∀x∈[−1,∞]
⇒ Rf=[1,∞)
∴f(x) is many-one into function.
(c) f(x)=∣x−1|+|x−2|+|x−3|+|x−4∣,x∈[3,4]∴ f(x)=(x−1)+(x−2)+(x−3)−(x−4)=(3x−6)−(x−4)
f(x)=2x−2, which is increasing function
Rf=[4,6]
Clearly, f(x) is one-one onto function.
For domain, ln(cos(sinx))≥0
⇒ (cos(sinx))≥1⇒ cos(sinx)=1∴ sinx=0⇒ x=nπ,n∈I Rf={0}
since f(x)=0
Thus, f(x) is many-one function.
