Question:
The graphs given alongside represent two functions \(f(x)\) and \(g(x)\) respectively. Which of the following is true?
The graphs given alongside represent two functions \(f(x)\) and \(g(x)\) respectively. Which of the following is true?
Show Hint
For graph-based function problems, sketch known base graphs (like modulus) and test transformations (reflections, shifts).

- \(g(x) = |f(x)|\)
- \(f(x) = |g(x)|\)
- \(g(x) = -|f(x)|\)
- None of these

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Analyze the graphs
From the left graph (for \(f(x)\)):
Looks like a “V”-shaped graph opening upward → Suggests \(f(x) = |x|\) From the right graph (for \(g(x)\)):
“V”-shaped graph opening downward → Suggests \(g(x) = -|x|\)
Step 2: Compare definitions If \(f(x) = |x|\), then clearly: \[ g(x) = -|x| = -|f(x)| \Rightarrow g(x) = -|f(x)| \] % Final Answer: (c)

- Let the domain of the function $ f(x) = \cos^{-1} \left( \frac{4x + 5}{3x - 7} \right) $ be $ [\alpha, \beta] $ and the domain of $ g(x) = \log_2 \left( 2 - 6 \log_2 \left( 2x + 5 \right) \right) $ be $ (\gamma, \delta) $. Then $ |7(\alpha + \beta) + 4(\gamma + \delta)| $ is equal to:
- If the domain of the function \( \log_5 (18x - x^2 - 77) \) is \( (\alpha, \beta) \) and the domain of the function \[ \log_{(x-1)} \left( \frac{2x^2 + 3x - 2}{x^2 - 3x - 4} \right) \] is \( (\gamma, \delta) \), then \( \alpha^2 + \beta^2 + \gamma^2 \) is equal to:
Let \( f(x) = \log x \) and \[ g(x) = \frac{x^4 - 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x + 2}{2x^2 - 2x + 1} \] Then the domain of \( f \circ g \) is:
- The values of $\lambda$ so that $f(x) = \sin x - \cos x - \lambda x + C$ decreases for all real values of $x$ are :
- If \( f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) and \( g : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) are two functions defined by \( f(x) = 2x - 3 \) and \( g(x) = 5x^2 - 2 \), then the least value of the function \((g \circ f)(x)\) is:
