Monotone not necessarily increasing

For a differentiable surjective function f : (0,1) → (0,1), consider . If f′(x) ≠ 0 for every x ∈ (0,1), which of the following statements are true?

  1. A.F is injective.
  2. B.f is increasing.
  3. C.For every , there exists a unique such that F(x, y) = (x′, y′).
  4. D.The total derivative DF(x, y) is invertible for all .

The answer and working come with the PYQ pack.
