The function $f:[0,3]\rightarrow [1,29]$ defined by $f(x)=2x^{3}-15x^{2}+36x+1$ is

  1. injective and surjective
  2. surjective but not injective
  3. injective but not surjective
  4. neither injective nor surjective

Injective means for every x there is unique value of f(x)

So here for x= 0 we have f(x) = 1

                  x= 1   f(x)= 24

                  x= 2   f(x)= 29

                  x= 2   f(x)= 28

So,every x has unique value of f(x)

Thus,it should be injective

Now coming to surjective part..if every element of set B(HERE [1,29]) is image of set A(here [0,3]) tehn it will be surjective but it is not the case.

So, answer should be C

But, according to below link answer is B

Please check if my logic or understanding is wrong

one to one (injective)----->A function for which every element of the range of the function corresponds to exactly one element of the domain.

onto (surjective)------>The function is surjective (onto) if each element of the range is mapped to by at least one element of the domain.

Let $f(x)=\log|x|$ and $g(x) =\sin x$. If $A$ is the range of $f(g(x))$ and $B$ is the range of $g(f(x))$ then $A\cap B$ is$[-1,0]$$[-1,0)$$[-\infty ,0]$$[-\infty ,1]$
