Let A = R – {2}, B = R – {1}. Let f : A → B be defined by $f(x)=\frac{x-1}{x-2}$ Then, |
f is onto but not one-one f is one-one but not onto f is bijective None of these |
f is bijective |
$y=\frac{x-1}{x-2}=f(x)$ $f(x_1)=f(x_2)⇒\frac{x_1-1}{x_1-2}=\frac{x_2-1}{x_2-2}$ $⇒x_1x_2-2x_1-x_2+2=x_1x_2-2x_2-x_1+2$ so $x_1=x_2$ (ONE-ONE) $y=\frac{x-1}{x-2}⇒yx-2y=x-1$ so $yx-x=2y-1$ so $x=\frac{2y-1}{y-1}$ $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{2x-1}{x-1}$ $x≠1$ there exists atleast one x for every y (ONTO) f is both one-one and onto in the specified domain and range |
