Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) One-one but not onto

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\frac{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}-1}{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1} \\ & =1-\frac{2}{2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1} \\ & \mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=\frac{2}{\left(2^{2 \mathrm{x}}+1\right)^2} \cdot 2.2^{2 \mathrm{x}} \cdot \ln 2 \text { i.e always }+\mathrm{ve}…
