Q74 / 180 · COMEDK 2020 · Mathematics

If $f: R \rightarrow R$ is defined by $f(x)=|x|$, then

  • A
    $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{|x|}$
  • B
    $f^{-1}(x)=-x$
  • C
    $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{x}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    The function $f^{-1}(x)$ does not exist.

Solution

Since, $f(x)=|x|$ is neither one-one nor onto, 30 $f(x)$ is not invertible. $\therefore f^{-1}(x)$ does not exist.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
