Answer» False Given that, f : R → R be the function defined by f (x) = sin (3x+2) ∀ x ∈R f is invertible if it is bijective that is f should be one-one and onto. Now, we know that sin x lies between -1 and 1. So, the range of f(x) = sin (3x+2) is [-1,1] which is not equal to its co-domain. i.e., range of f ≠ R (co-domain) In other words, range of f is less than co-domain, i.e there are elements in co-domain which does not have any pre-image in domain. so, f is not onto. Hence, f is not invertible. |
