JEE Main 2017 · 8 Apr · Shift 1, Mathematics question 61

Let f(x)=210⋅x+1f(x)=2^{10}\cdot x+1 and g(x)=310⋅x−1g(x)=3^{10}\cdot x-1. If (f∘g)(x)=x(f\circ g)(x)=x, then xx is equal to :

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: D

f(g(x))=210(310x−1)+1=610x−210+1=xf(g(x))=2^{10}(3^{10}x-1)+1=6^{10}x-2^{10}+1=x, so
x=210−1610−1=1−2−10310−2−10x=\frac{2^{10}-1}{6^{10}-1}=\frac{1-2^{-10}}{3^{10}-2^{-10}}
(dividing top and bottom by 2102^{10}).
