If the function f:(-∞,-1]→(a,b] defined by f(x)=ex3-3x+1 is one-one and onto, then the distance of the point P(2b+4, a+2) from the line x+e-3y=4 is : [2024]
(1)
Given f(x)=ex3-3x+1
∴ f'(x)=ex3-3x+1[3(x-1)(x+1)]≥0
As, ex3-3x+1 is always positive.
∴ 3(x-1)(x+1)≥0
⇒x∈(-∞,-1]∪[1,∞)
For onto function, Range = Co-domain
∴ a=f(-∞)=e-∞=0
and b=f(-1)=e-1+3+1=e3
∴ P(2b+4,a+2)=P(2e3+4,2)
Now, distance of the point P(2e3+4,2) from the line x+e-3y-4=0
=2e3+4+2e-3-41+e-6=2(e3+e-3)1+e-6=2(e6+1e3)×11+e6×e3
