Question

Solution
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}; B = {0, 1, 9, 25, 49, 81} and f(x) = x2
Given: f(x) = x2
So, f = {(1, 1), (3, 9), (5, 25), (7,49), (9, 81)}
Clearly, f is one-one.
But this is not onto because the element 0 in the co-domain (B) has no pre-image in the domain (A) .
⇒ f is not a bijection.
So, f -1does not exist.
