Q.

Let f : [0, 3] A be defined by f(x)=2x315x2+36x+7 and g : [0, )B be defined by g(x)=x2025x2025+1. If both the functions are onto and S={xZ : xA or xB}, then n(S) is equal to:          [2025]

1 36  
2 29  
3 30  
4 31  

Ans.

(3)

As f(x) is onto, hence A is range of f(x).

Now, f'(x)=6x230x+36=6(x2)(x3)

for extremum, f(2) = 16 – 60 + 72 + 7 = 35; f(3) = 54 – 135 + 108 + 7 = 34; f(0) = 7; F(1) = 30.

Hence, range  [7, 35] = A

Also, for range of g(x), g(x) = 1-1x2025+1[0,1)=B

   S = {0, 7, 8, ..., 35}

Hence, n(S) = 30
