Question 2
Let the function $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ be defined by $f(x) = \frac{e^x - e^{-x}}{e^x + e^{-x}}$. This function can be structurally classified as:

Section B — Integer Type
Question 11 — Integer answer

Enter an integer value.
Question 12 — Integer answer
Find the cardinality of the range of the fractional part expression $f(x) = \{\sin x\}$ if the domain is restricted to integers.
Enter an integer value.

Let $f(x)$ be an invertible bijection such that $f(3) = 5$. Find the value of the inverse expression $f^{-1}(5)$.
Enter an integer value.
Section C — Assertion & Reasoning
Question 14 — Assertion / Reason
Assertion (A): The product of two odd functions is always an even function.
Reason (R): Substituting $-x$ into both functions pulls out two negative signs, which multiply together to become positive ($(-1) \times (-1) = 1$).
Solution: Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation.
Question 15 — Assertion / Reason
Assertion (A): The socks-and-shoes identity statement $(f \circ g)^{-1} = g^{-1} \circ f^{-1}$ applies to all invertible functions.
Reason (R): To undo a composite process, you must reverse the order of the individual inverse operations step-by-step.
Solution: Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation.
