f(x) = 2 – 3x, x ∈ R, x > 0.

Solution

Given: f(x) = 2 – 3x, x ∈ R, x > 0

The values of f(x) for various values of real numbers x > 0 can be written in the tabular form as

x 0.01 0.1 0.9 1 2 2.5 4 5 ...
f(x) 1.97 1.7 -0.7 -1 -4 -5.5 -10 -13 ...

Thus, it can be clearly observed that the range of f is the set of all real numbers less than 2.

i.e., range of f = (–`oo`, 2)

Alter:

Let x > 0

⇒ 3x > 0

⇒ 2 –3x < 2

⇒ f(x) < 2

∴ Range of f = (–`oo`, 2)
