Q.

Let f:(0,1) be a function defined by f(x)=11-e-x and g(x)=(f(-x)-f(x)). Consider the following two statements:

(I) g is an increasing function in (0, 1)

(II) g is one-one in (0, 1)

Then,                                            [2023]

1 Only (I) is true  
2 Both (I) and (II) are true  
3 Neither (I) nor (II) is true  
4 Only (II) is true  

Ans.

(2)

f(x)=exex-1

f(-x)=e-xe-x-1=11-ex=-1ex-1;  g(x)=-(ex+1)ex-1

g'(x)=-[(ex-1)ex-(ex+1)ex(ex-1)2]=2ex(ex-1)2>0x(0,1)

Hence, g is an increasing function in (0,1)  and is also one-one.
