Question:

Let function f: R → R be defined by f(x) = 2x + sin x for x ∈ R. Then f is

Options:

one-to-one and onto

one-to-one but not onto

onto but not one-to-one

neither one-to-one nor onto

Correct Answer:

one-to-one and onto

Explanation:

As $–∞<2x<∞$

So $–∞<2x+\sin x<∞$ for $x∈R$

$f'(x)=2+\cos x>0$  (always increasing)

So f(x) is one-one and onto
