1.Relation and Function
easy
If $f(x) = \frac{x}{{1 + x}}$, then ${f^{ - 1}}(x)$ is equal to
A
$\frac{{(1 + x)}}{x}$
B
$\frac{1}{{(1 + x)}}$
C
$\frac{{(1 + x)}}{{(1 - x)}}$
D
$\frac{x}{{(1 - x)}}$
Solution
(d) $f(x) = \frac{x}{{1 + x}}$. Let $y = f(x) \Rightarrow x = {f^{ – 1}}(y)$
$\therefore$ $y = \frac{x}{{1 + x}} \Rightarrow y + yx = x$
==> $x = \frac{y}{{1 – y}}$
==> ${f^{ – 1}}(y) = \frac{y}{{1 – y}}$
==> ${f^{ – 1}}(x) = \frac{x}{{1 – x}}$.
