QJEEM19Ma786f: JEE Main 2019 Mathematics - Class 11 JEEM19Ma786f Solution: Let f(x) = x 2 , x ∈ R. For any A ⊆ R, define g (A) = { x ∈ R : …
Let f(x) = x2 , x R. For any A R, define g (A) = { x R : f(x) A}. If S = [0,4], then which one of the following statements is not true ?
Multiple Choice Options
- A g(f(S)) ≠ S
- B f(g(S)) = S
- C f(g(S)) ≠ f(S)
- D g(f(S)) = g(S)
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
f(x) = x2 x R
g(A) = {x R : f(x) A} S [0, 4]
g(S) = {x R : f(x) S}
= {x R : 0 x2 4}
= {x R : –2 x 2}
g(S) S
f(g(S)) f(S)
g(f(S)) = {x R : f(x) f(S)}
= {x R : x2 S2}
= {x R : 0 x2 16}
= {x R : –4 x 4}
g(f(S)) g(S)
g(f(S)) = g(S) is incorrect
g(A) = {x
g(S) = {x
= {x
= {x
g(f(S)) = {x
= {x
= {x
= {x
