Question

Let A = [–1, 1]. Then, discuss whether the following functions defined on A are one-one, onto or bijective:

f(x) = `x/2`

Sum

Solution

Given, A = [–1, 1]

f: [–1, 1] → [–1, 1], f(x) = `x/2`

Let f(x1) = f(x2)

`x_1/2` = x2

So, f(x) is one-one.

Also x ∈ [–1, 1]

`x/2` = f(x) = `[-1/2, 1/2]`

Hence, the range is a subset of co-domain ‘A’

So, f(x) is not onto.

Therefore, f(x) is not bijective.
