Show f(x) is a 1-1 function
![The image contains a mathematical function presented as:
\[ f(x) = \frac{x+1}{x-3} \]
This represents a rational function where the numerator is \(x+1\) and the denominator is \(x-3\). This function is undefined when \(x = 3\), as the denominator becomes zero. The function may feature a vertical asymptote at \(x = 3\).
If graphs or diagrams were included, they would typically display how the function behaves as \(x\) approaches 3, highlighting the asymptotic behavior.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ff239c1dc-cc36-46fb-85c8-70a2935dacc9%2Fb84bcf93-bd6e-4b49-b5b9-460503b1d5e2%2Fmpvw0r3_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)

Expert Solution

Step 1
Given:
To prove: f(x) is 1-1
we know that,
If f(x1) = f(x2) then x1 = x2 therefore f(x) is 1-1
