As we have learnt in

 

Constant Function -

f\left ( x \right )= c,\: \: \: \forall x\in A

if f:A\rightarrow B\: and \: c is a constant value.

- wherein

 

 

Put x=y=1,(f(1))^{2}=3f(1)-2

\Rightarrow f(1)=1\: or\: 2

Let\: f(1)=1, then\: put\: y=1

f(x).f(1)=f(x)+f(1)+f(x)-2

f(x)=1

constant function but f(x)  is not constant function

\therefore f(1)\neq 1, hence f(1)=2
