If f(x) = x/(1 + |x|), the function f: R to (-1,1) is:

Answer: Bijective.

  • A Injective but not surjective
  • B Surjective but not injective
  • C Bijective
  • D Neither

Correct answer: C. Bijective

Explanation: f is strictly increasing (one-one). For any y in (-1,1): if y>=0, x = y/(1-y) works; if y<0, x = y/(1+y) works. So f is onto (-1,1). Hence bijective.
