The greatest integer function f:R→Rf: R\to R defined by f(x)=[x]f(x) = [x], then which of the following are true?

(A) f(x)f(x) is one - one and onto.

(B) Domain of f(x)=Rf(x) = R (the set of real numbers).

(C) f(x)f(x) is neither one-one nor onto.

(D) Range of f(x)=Zf(x) = Z (The set of integers).

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

[x][x] is defined for every real xx, so the domain is RR and (B) is true.

All xx in [0,1)[0,1) map to 0, so it is not one-one; its image is ZZ, a proper subset of the codomain RR, so it is not onto. Hence (C) and (D) are true and (A) is false.
