Letf: RRbe defined byfx=x-1x+1,thenfis

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

f: RR, fx=x-1x+1

For x=0, fx=-1

And fx=1-1x1+1x

If x±, fx1

Thus, the graph of the function fx is given by

If a line parallel to the x-axis intersects the graph of a function at more than one point, then the function is many-one.

And, it is clear from the graph that, the given function is many-one.

Also, the range of the function is [-1, 1) which is not same as the co-domain which is R and if the co-domain of a function and range are not same then the function is not onto.

Hence, the given function is neither one-one nor onto.
