Given, f ( x )=ax+ b , g ( x )=cx+ d
∵ f { g ( x ) }=g {f (x) }
⇒ f ( cx+ d )=g ( ax +b )
⇒ a ( cx+ d )+ b=c ( ax +b )+ d
⇒ ad+ b=bc +d
⇒ f ( d )=g(b)
4 (a)
Since ϕ ( x )=sin4 x +cos 4 x is even, As sin x is odd and sin x raised to an even power is an even
function while cos x is always an even function. Hence the sum of two even functions is even.
∴ f ( x )=sin 4 3 x +cos 4 3 x is an even function.

For choice (a), we have
f ( x )=f ( y ) ; x , y ∈ ¿
⇒|x +1|=| y +1|⇒ x+ 1= y +1 ⇒ x= y
So, f is an injection
For choice (b), we obtain

g ( 2 )= ∧g

So, g(x ) is not injective

It can be easily seen that the functions in choices in options (c) and (d) are injective maps
7 (b)
Given, f ( x )=x− [ x ] , g ( x )=[x ] for x ∈ R.
∴ f ( g ( x )) =f ([ x ])
¿ [ x ] −[ x ]

8 (d)
Since g ( x )=3 sin x is a many-one function. Therefore, f ( x )−3 sin x is many-one
Also,−1 ≤sin x ≤1
⇒−3 ≤−3 sin x +3
⇒ 2 ≤5−3 sin x ≤ 8
⇒ 2 ≤ f ( x )≤ 8 ⇒ Range of f ( x )=[2, 8]≠ R
So, f ( x) is not onto
Hence, f ( x) is neither one-one nor onto
9 (a)
We have,
f ( x +2 y , x−2 y )=xy ….(i)
Let x +2 y =u and x−2 y=υ . Then,

Given, f ( x )= y =( 1−x )1/ 3

⇒ y =1−x
⇒ x=1− y 3

11 (d)
Given, f ( x )=5 x( x−4) for f : ¿
At x=4
f ( x )=5 4 (4 −4) =1
Which is not lie in the interval ¿
∴ Function is not bijective.
Hence, f −1 (x) is not defined.
12 (b)
Given, f ( x )=x 3 +3 x−2
On differentiating w.r.t. x , we get
f ' ( x )=3 x 2+3
Put f ' ( x )=0 ⇒ 3 x 2+ 3=0
2
⇒ x =−1
∴ f (x ) is either increasing or decreasing.
At x=2 , f ( 2 )=23 +3 ( 2 )−2=12
At x=3 , f ( 3 ) =33 +3 ( 3 )−2=34
∴ f ( x ) ∈[12, 34 ]

∴ f ( θ ) is periodic with period =π

15 (c)
Given, f ( x )=x 3 +5 x+ 1
Now, f ' ( x )=3 x 2+5> 0 , ∀ x ∈ R
∴ f (x ) is strictly increasing function.
∴ f (x ) is one-one function.
Clearly, f ( x) is a continous function and also increasing on R ,
lim f ( x ) =−∞∧lim ¿ ∞
x→−∞ x→ ∞

∴ f (x ) takes every value between −∞ and ∞

Thus, f ( x )is onto function.

Since, x 2=x . x

x =xy
Transitive, xRy ⇒ x 2=xy

Now, x 2 y 2=x y 2 z ⇒ x 2=xz

Therefore, f (x) is periodic with period equal to LCM of ( 2 n , 2 ( n−1 ) )=2n( n−1)

Clearly, f ( x) is defined for x satisfying the following conditions

Now, x 2−1>0 ⇒ x ∈(−∞ ,−1)∪(1 , ∞ )
and,
x +3>0 and x +3 ≠1 ⇒ x >−3 and x=−2

We have,
2
f ( x )=log 2 x−5 ( x −3 x−10)
For f (x) to be defined, we must have
x −3 x−10>0 , 2 x−5>0 and 2 x−5 ≠1
2

5
∧5
2
⇒ ( x−5 )( x +2 ) >0 , x> ∧x ≠ 3
2
⇒ x >5 ⇒ x ∈(5 , ∞ )
30 (c)
Since, f ( x) is an even function therefore its values is always greater than equal to 0 and we know
x2
2 2
x < x +1 or <1
x2 +1
∴ Required range is [0, 1).

31 (b)
It can be easily seen that f : A → A is a bijection. Let f ( x )= y . Then,
f ( x )= y
⇒ x ( 2−x )= y
2
⇒ x −2 x+ y=0
2
⇒ x −2 x+ y=0
⇒ x= √
2 ± 4−4 y
2
⇒ x=1 ± √1− y
⇒ x=1−√ 1− y [∵ x ≤ 1]
⇒ f ( y )=1− √1− y
−1

Hence, f −1 : A → A is defined as f −1 ( x )=1−√ 1−x

We observe that

Period of sin is =4 , Period of cos is =6 ,

A={ 1, 2 , 3 , 4 } , then
(a) since, (2 , 4)∈ R and (2 , 3) ∈ R , so R is not a function.
(b) since, (1,3)∈ R and (3 , 1) ∈ R but (1 , 1)∉ R .
So, R is not transitive.
(c) since, (2 , 3)∈ R but (3 , 2)∉ R , so R is not symmetric.
(d) since, ( 4 , 4)∉ R , so R is not reflexive.
34 (a)
We have,
f ( x )=16− x C 2 x−1+ 20−3 x P4 x−5
Clearly, f ( x) is defined, if
16−x ≥ 2 x−1> 0,20−3 x ≥ 4 x−5>0 and x ∈ Z
⇒ x ∈ { 1,2,3,4,5 } , x ∈{2, 3 } and x ∈ Z
⇒ x ∈ { 2,3 }
∴ Domain ( f ) ={ 2,3 }.
35 (a)
For f (x) to be defined,
x−4 ≥ 0 and 6−x ≥ 0 ⇒ x ≥ 4 and x ≤ 6
Therefore, the domain is [4, 6].

We have,
hogof ( x )=cos−1 (|sin x|)

Clearly, hogof ( x ) ≠ fogoh (c )

Thus, option (a) is not correct
Now,

¿ , fohog ( x )=sin2 (cos−1 √ x )=1−cos 2 (cos−1 √ x)

∴ gofoh ( x ) ≠ fohog (x)

Thus, option (b) is correct
Also,

Now, for x ∈ (−2 ,1 ) , we have

The domain of g ( x ) is the set of all real numbers other than zero i.e. R−{ 0 }
The domain of h( x ) is the set [−1 ,1] and the domain of u( x ) is the set of all reals greater than 2,

Now, f ( 0 )=f (−2 )=−f ( 2 ) =−f (0)
