Put 1  x  y  x   y  1 47. If y = x then f (2x)  f (0)  2[f (x)]2

if y = -x then
Then f  y   3  2  y  1   y  1  2  y 2

f (2 x )  f (0)  2 f ( x ). f ( x )
therefore, f  x   2  x 2.  2.[ f ( x)]2  2. f ( x ). f ( x )  f ( x )  f (  x )
39. Here g  x   1  n  n  1, x  n  Z  f ( x )  f (  x )  0  f (10)  ( 10)  0 .

1 n  k  n  1 k, x  n  k
(where n  Z , 0  k  1 )
 1, g  x   0

Now f  g  x     0, g  x   0
 1, g  x   0

Clearly g  x   0 x .so, f  g  x    1 x

42. f  x  sinx is a bijection in  0,  / 2
43. By defination of composition of functions
g  f  x     sin x  cos x   1

g  f  x    sin 2 x
We know sin x is bijection only, when

Thus g  x  is bijection if
