Mathematics Question from JEE Main 2026 · 24 January, Shift 2

Consider the following three statements for the function f:(0,)Rf : (0,\infty) \rightarrow \mathbb{R} defined by

f(x)=logexx1f(x) = \left| \log_e x \right| - |x - 1|

:

(I) ff is differentiable at all x>0x > 0.

(II) ff is increasing in (0,1)(0,1).

(III) ff is decreasing in (1,)(1,\infty).

Then,
