If f(x) =
; g(x) =
for a > 1, a ≠ 1and x ∈ R, where { } & [ ] denote the fractional part and integral part functions respectively, then which of the following statements holds good for the function h(x), where ( λ n a) h(x) = ( λ n f(x) + λ n g(x)).
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
f(x) =
; g(x) = 
for a > 1, a ≠ 1 and x ∈ R
λ n a h(x) = λ n f(x) + λ ng(x)
⇒ ( λ n a) h(x) =
λ na +
λ n a
⇒ h(x) =
+ 
⇒ h(x) = a |x| sgn x
Now h(–x) = a |–x| sgn (–x) = –h(x)
⇒ h(x) is an odd function
Also graph of h(x) is

It is clear from the graph that h(x) is an increasing
function
