The correct Answer is:
To solve the functional equation \( f(x - f(y)) = f(f(y)) + x f(y) + f(x) - 1 \) for all \( x, y \in \mathbb{R} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute \( y = 0 \) Let’s first substitute \( y = 0 \) into the functional equation: \[ f(x - f(0)) = f(f(0)) + x f(0) + f(x) - 1 \] Let \( f(0) = c \). Then we can rewrite the equation as: \[ f(x - c) = f(c) + x c + f(x) - 1 \tag{1} \] ### Step 2: Substitute \( x = 0 \) Now, substitute \( x = 0 \) into the original equation: \[ f(0 - f(y)) = f(f(y)) + 0 \cdot f(y) + f(0) - 1 \] This simplifies to: \[ f(-f(y)) = f(f(y)) + c - 1 \tag{2} \] ### Step 3: Analyze Equation (1) From equation (1): \[ f(x - c) = f(c) + x c + f(x) - 1 \] This suggests a linear behavior. Let’s denote \( f(x) = ax + b \) for some constants \( a \) and \( b \). ### Step 4: Substitute \( f(x) = ax + b \) into the equation Substituting \( f(x) = ax + b \) into equation (1): \[ f(x - c) = a(x - c) + b = ax - ac + b \] Now, substituting \( f(c) = ac + b \): \[ f(c) + xc + f(x) - 1 = (ac + b) + xc + (ax + b) - 1 \] This gives: \[ ax - ac + b = ax + xc + 2b + ac - 1 \] ### Step 5: Equate coefficients Now, equate the coefficients of \( x \) and the constant terms: 1. Coefficient of \( x \): \( a = a + c \) implies \( c = 0 \). 2. Constant terms: \( -ac + b = 2b + ac - 1 \) leads to \( -1 = b \). ### Step 6: Conclusion Thus, we have \( c = 0 \) and \( b = -1 \). Therefore, the function simplifies to: \[ f(x) = ax - 1 \] ### Step 7: Determine \( a \) Substituting back into the original equation to find \( a \): After substituting \( f(x) = ax - 1 \) into the original functional equation, we find that \( a = 1 \) satisfies the equation. Thus, the final function is: \[ f(x) = x - 1 \] ### Final Answer The function \( f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) is given by: \[ f(x) = x - 1 \]

To solve the functional equation \( f(x - f(y)) = f(f(y)) + x f(y) + f(x) - 1 \) for all \( x, y \in \mathbb{R} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute \( y = 0 \) Let’s first substitute \( y = 0 \) into the functional equation: \[ f(x - f(0)) = f(f(0)) + x f(0) + f(x) - 1 \] ...
