Hi there. You can just draw graph and analyse .. For ex. For x0 f(x) will be x². Now try to plot it. It would something of x³ type..graph. Hence it is one one and onto.

For x>0 it will be x² and for x

f : R\rightarrowR ; f(x) = x |x| 
For x > 0, f(x) = x.x = x.
For x = 0, f(x) = 0 .
For x 2 
\therefore The graph of f(x) is always increasing from – infinity to + infinity.
So it is one-one.
Moreover, f(x) covers all the elements of the set of real numbers.
So it is onto.
\therefore f(x) = x |x| is one-one and onto function.
