Class 12 Mathematics - Chapter Relations and Functions NCERT Solutions | Show that the Modulus Function f :
Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = |x|, is neither oneone nor onto, where | x | is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is – x, if x is negative.
It is seen that
.
∴f( - 1) = f(1), but - 1 ≠ 1.
∴ f is not one-one.
Now, consider - 1 ∈ R.
It is known that f(x) = |x| is always non-negative. Thus, there does not exist any element x in domain R such that f(x) = |x| = - 1.
∴ f is not onto.
Hence, the modulus function is neither one-one nor onto.
