Question

Give an example of a map which is one-one but not onto

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let f: N → N, be a mapping defined by f(x) = x2

For f(x1) = f (x2)

Then, `x_1^2 = x_2^2`

x1 = x2  ......(Since x1 + x= 0 is not possible)

Further ‘f’ is not onto, as for 1 ∈ N, there does not exist any x in N such that f(x) = 2x + 1.
