Question

Let A = R – {2}, B = R – {1}. If f : A → B is a function defined by $f(x)\,=\,\left({\frac{x-1}{x-2}}\right)\!,$ show that f is one-one and onto. Hence find $f^{-1}.$

If A = $\left(\begin{array}{l l l }2 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 1 & -1 & 0\end{array}\right)$ , then find value of A² - 3A + 2I.
