Solution

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Definition of one-to-one function: A function f f is one-to-one (injective) if f(a)=f(b) f(a) = f(b) implies a=b a = b .

  2. Given: f f and g g are both one-to-one functions.

  3. To Prove/Disprove: The sum function (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x) (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) is one-to-one.

  4. Counterexample: Consider f(x)=x f(x) = x and g(x)=x g(x) = -x , both of which are one-to-one functions.

  5. Sum function: (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=x+(x)=0 (f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = x + (-x) = 0 .

  6. Analysis: The sum function (f+g)(x)=0 (f+g)(x) = 0 for all x x , which is not one-to-one because different values of x x (e.g., x=1 x = 1 and x=2 x = 2 ) map to the same value (0).

  7. Conclusion: The sum function f+g f+g is not necessarily one-to-one even if f f and g g are both one-to-one. Therefore, the statement is false.
