36. (b) Since f (x) and g(x) are inverse of each other Now f ( x ) = f -1 ( x )
Þ f ( x ) = x Þ ( x - 1) + 1 = x

Here x = g(y) Clearly Df = [–1, ¥ ) but co-domain is not given. Therefore

\ Let f (x1) = f (x2)

Þ g ¢ ( x ) = 1 + ( g ( x) ) 5 Þ x1 = x2
37. (d) Let A and B be non-empty sets in R. \ f (x) is one-one, hence f (x) is biection
Let f : A ® B is biective function. Q (x + 1) being something +ve, " x > –1

Clearly statement - 1 is true which says that f is an onto

Statement - 2 is also true statement but it is not the Þ x +1 = y +1 (+ve square root as x +1 ³ 0 )
correct explanation for statement-1
Þ x =–1+ y +1
38. (a) Given f is a biective function
Þ f –1 (x) = x + 1 – 1
\ f :[1, ¥) ® [1, ¥)
Then f (x) = f –1 (x)
f ( x ) = ( x - 1) + 1, x ³ 1

Þ (x + 1)2 – 1 = x +1 –1
Let y = ( x - 1) + 1 Þ ( x - 1) = y - 1

Þ (x + 1) [ (x + 1)3 – 1] = 0 Þ x = – 1, 0
Þ x = 1± y - 1 Þ f -1 ( y ) = 1 ± y - 1 \ The statement-1 and statement-2 both are true.
40. (d) Clearly f (x) = 4x + 3 is one one and onto, so it is
Þ f -1 ( x ) = 1 + x - 1 {\ x ³ 1} invertible.
