    \[f:P\to Q\] defined by \[f\,(x)=4x-{{x}^{2}}\] is a bijective function if

    A) \[P=[3,\,\,\infty ),\]\[Q\in (-\infty ,\,\,4]\]

    B) \[P=[2,\,\,\infty ),\]\[Q\in [4,\,\,\infty )\]

    C) \[P=(-\,\infty ,\,\,2],\]\[Q\in [4,\,\,\infty )\]

    D) \[P=(-\,\infty ,\,\,2],\]\[Q\in (-\,\infty ,\,\,4]\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[f\,(x)=4x-{{x}^{2}}\]
    \[f'(x)=4-2x\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[f'(x)>0\]          if          \[x<2\]
    And      \[f'(x)<0\]          if          \[x>2\]
    \[\therefore \]      if \[x<2,\]then f(x) is increasing
                if \[x>2,\] then f(x) is decreasing
                \[f\,(2)=4\]
    (i)         If \[P=(-\,\infty ,\,\,2],\] then f(x) is one - one and range \[=(-\,\infty ,\,\,4]\]
                \[\therefore \]      f(x) is onto if \[Q=(-\,\infty ,\,\,4]\]
    (ii)         If\[P=[2,\,\,\infty ),\]then f(x) is one - one and range \[=(-\,\infty ,\,\,4]\]
                \[\therefore \]      f(x) is onto if \[Q=(-\,\infty ,\,\,4]\]
