MCQ
The range of the function $f(x) = \frac{x}{{1 + \left| x \right|}},\,x \in R,$ is
  • A
    $R$
  • $(-1,1)$
  • C
    $R-\{0\}$
  • D
    $[-1,1]$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$(-1,1)$
b
$f\left( x \right) = \frac{x}{{1 + \left| x \right|}},x \in R$

If $x > 0,\left| x \right| = x \Rightarrow f\left( x \right) = \frac{x}{{1 + x}}$

which is not defined for $x=-1$

If $x < 0,\left| x \right| =  - x \Rightarrow f\left( x \right) = \frac{x}{{1 - x}}$

which is not defined for $x=1$

Thus $f\left( x \right)$ defined for all value of $R$ except $1$ and $-1$ 

Hence, range $=(-1,1)$.
