Q.

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : The function f: defined by f(x)=x1+|x| is one-one.

Statement II : The function f: defined by f(x)=x2+4x-30x2-8x+18 is many-one.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :    [2026]

1 Both Statement I and Statement II are false  
2 Statement I is true but Statement II is false  
3 Statement I is false but Statement II is true  
4 Both Statement I and Statement II are true  

Ans.

(4)

Statement 1f(x)=x1+|x|

f(x)={x1+xx0x1-xx<0

f(x) is one-one

Statement 2f(x)=x2+4x-30x2-8x+18,  f(0)=-3018=-53

-53=x2+4x-30x2-8x+18

On solving x=0,-1

f(0)=f(-1)=-53

 f(x) is many-one
