Question

If f : R → R and g : R → R are defined by f(x) = x5 and g(x) = x4 then check if f, g are one-one and fog is one-one?

Sum

Solution

f(x) = x5 – It is one-one function

g(x) = x4 – It is one-one function

fog = fog[g(x)] = f[g(x)]

= f(x4)

= (x4)5

fog = x20

f is one-one, g is not one-one.

∵ g(1) = 14 = 1

g(-1) = (-1)4 = 1

Different elements have same images

fog is not one-one. [∵ fog (1) = fog (-1) = 1]
