Question

Check the injectivity and surjectivity of the following function:

f : R → R given by f(x) = x2

Sum

Solution

f : R → R given by f(x) = x2

It is seen that f(–1) = f(1) = 1, but –1 ≠ 1.

∴ f is not injective.

Now, –2 ∈ R, but there does not exist any element x ∈ R such that f(x) = x2 = –2.

∴ f is not surjective.

Hence, function f is neither injective nor surjective.
