JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 1. relation and function

Let \(f(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+1}, x \in R-\{0,-1,1)\). If \(f^{a+1}(x)=f\left(f^{n}(x)\right)\) for all \(n \in N\), then \(f^{\prime}(6)+f(7)\) is equal to

  1. A \(\frac{7}{6}\)
  2. B \(-\frac{3}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{7}{12}\)
  4. D \(-\frac{11}{12}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-\frac{3}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+1}\) \(\Rightarrow f^{2}(x)=f(f(x))=\frac{\frac{x-1}{x+1}-1}{\frac{x-1}{x+1}+1}=-\frac{1}{x}\) \(f^{3}(x)=f\left(f^{2}(x)\right)=f\left(-\frac{1}{x}\right)=\frac{x+1}{1-x}\) \(\Rightarrow f^{4}(x)=f\left(\frac{x+1}{1-x}\right)=-\frac{1}{x}\)…
