Easy MCQ +4 / -1

Which of the following is a one-one (injective) function from ℝ to ℝ?

  1. A f(x) = x²
  2. B f(x) = x³ Correct answer
  3. C f(x) = |x|
  4. D f(x) = sin x

Solution

f(x) = x³ is strictly monotonic (always increasing) → one-one. f(x) = x² is not one-one (f(1)=f(-1)=1); |x| also not; sin x not (periodicity).
