Replace x by x, we get: 2f (x − 1) − f(x − 1) = x ⇒ 2f ( ) − f(x − 1) = x

Eliminate f ( ) from (i) and (ii), we get :

Replace x by x + 1 to get: f(x) = 3 [2(1 + x) + 1+x]
2. (C) f(x + f(x)) = 4f(x)
Put x = 1, f(1 + f(1)) = 4f(1) ⇒ f(1 + 4) = 4(4) ⇒ f(5) = 16
Again put x = 5
f(5 + 16) = 4f(5) ⇒ f(21) = 4(16) = 64

13. (C) For f(x) to be defined, 1−x
> 0,4 − x2 > 0,1 − x ≠ 0
Since, √4 − x2 k0, we have 1 − x > 0 and 4 − x 2 > 0
⇒ x < 1 and (x − 2)(x + 2) < 0 ⇒ x < 1 and −2 < x < 2 ⇒ − 2 < x < 1

Since, −∞ < log ( ) < ∞ ⇒ − 1 ≤ sin [log ( )] ≤ 1 ∴ Range of f = [−1,1]

14. (B) Given, f(x) + 2f(1 − x) = x 2 + 2
Replace x by 1 − x in equation (i), we get :
f(1 − x) + 2f(x) = (1 − x)2 + 2
Now, multiplying equation (i) by 1 and equation (ii) by 2,
then subtracting each other, we get: −3f(x) = x 2 + 2 − 2(1 − x)2 − 4
(x − 2)2
⇒ 3f(x) = x 2 − 4x + 4 ⇒ f(x) =
