A=R−{3}
B=R−{1}
f:A→B

So, f(x) is one-one
f(x)=
x−3
x−2
y=
x−3
x−2
y(x−3)=x−2
yx−3y=x−2
yx−x=3y−2
x(y−1)=3y−2
x=
(y−1)
3y−2
f(x)=
x−3
x−2
=

=

3y−2−3(y−1)

3y−2−2(y−1)
=
3y−2−3y+3
3y−2−2y+2
=

3y−2y
=y
f(x)=y
f(x) is onto.
So f(x) is bijective and invertible
f(x)=
x−3
x−2
y=

x=

x(y−3)=y−2
xy−3x=y−2
xy−y=3x−2
y(x−1)=3x−2
y=
