y = 3[x - 21 + 5 = 3[x] - 1
so 3 [x] - 1 = 2 [x] + 3

the n y = 11
so x + y will lie in the interval [15

Hence f(x) is an even function.
(ii) f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y) for all x. y E R
Replacing x. y by zero. we get f(O) = 21(0)
f(O) = 0
Replacing y by - x. we get f(x) + f(-x) = f(O) = 0
f(x) = -f(-x)

How many solutions are there for equation

log 4 (X - 1) = log 2 (X - 3)?

~ Report the question

Solution

log4 (X - 1) = log2 (X - 3)

⇒ logi (x - 1) = log2 (x - 3)

1
⇒ log2 (x - 1) = log2 (x - 3)
2
⇒ log2 (X - 1)112 = log2 (X - 3)

⇒ (X - 1)112 = (X - 3)

⇒ x - 1 = x2 - 6x + 9

⇒ (x - 2) (x - 5) = 0

X = 2, 5
But x - 1 > 0 and x - 3 > 0

x > 1 and x > 3

So only one solution x = 5
