Q51jee_main_2025_04_april_morningComposition of Functions
Let f, g: (1, ∞) → R$f, g: (1, \infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ be defined as f(x) = (2x + 3)/(5x + 2)$f(x) = \frac{2x + 3}{5x + 2}$ and g(x) = (2 - 3x)/(1 - x)$g(x) = \frac{2 - 3x}{1 - x}$. If the range of the function f(g(x))$f(g(x))$ on the interval [2, 4]$[2, 4]$ is [α, β]$[\alpha, \beta]$, then (1)/(β - α)$\frac{1}{\beta - \alpha}$ is equal to
When dealing with composite functions of linear fractions, simplify algebraically first. If the resulting function has no vertical asymptote in the specified interval, it is monotonic, and the extreme values occur exactly at the endpoints.

Consider the sets:
A = (x,y) in R × R : x² + y² = 25$$A = \{(x,y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} : x^2 + y^2 = 25\}$$B = (x,y) in R × R : (x²)/(144) + (y²)/(16) = 1$$B = \left\{(x,y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} : \frac{x^2}{144} + \frac{y^2}{16} = 1\right\}$$C = (x,y) in Z × Z : x² + y² ≤ 4$$C = \{(x,y) \in \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z} : x^2 + y^2 \le 4\}$$
and D = A B$D = A \cap B$. The total number of one-one functions from the set D to the set C is:

The number of one-one (injective) functions from a set D$D$ with n(D)$n(D)$ elements to a set C$C$ with n(C)$n(C)$ elements is given by:
Step 1: Find the number of elements in set D = A B$D = A \cap B$.
Solving the equations of circle A$A$ and ellipse B$B$ simultaneously:
From A$A$, y² = 25 - x²$y^2 = 25 - x^2$. Substitute this into B$B$:
The intersection of a concentric circle and ellipse always yields 4 points if they cross completely. Break down the problem by counting the cardinality of domain and codomain independently before applying permutation formulas.

Let f: R → R$f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function satisfying f(0) = 1$f(0) = 1$ and f(2x) - f(x) = x$f(2x) - f(x) = x$ for all x in R$x \in \mathbb{R}$. If n → ∞ f(x) - f((x)/(2ⁿ)) = G(x)$\lim_{n \to \infty} \left\{ f(x) - f\left(\frac{x}{2^n}\right) \right\} = G(x)$, then Σr=1¹⁰ G(r²)$\sum_{r=1}^{10} G(r^2)$ is equal to
Linear iterative arguments of type f(2x)-f(x)=x$f(2x)-f(x)=x$ naturally condense into geometric progression properties via geometric series limits. Always look for telescoping patterns in infinite limits of difference terms.

Since all points of the ellipse lie perfectly inside the rectangular region, we conclusively find that B A$B \subset A$.
Pattern Recognition
