Solution

which is not one-one but onto

fZ → N ∪ {0} given by f(x) = |x|

njectivity:
Let and y be any two elements in the domain (Z), such that f(x) = f(y).

⇒ |x| = |y|

⇒ x= ± y

So, different elements of domain f may give the same image.
So, f is not one-one.

Surjectivity:
Let y be any element in the co domain (Z), such that f(x) = y for some element x in Z(domain).

f(x) = y

⇒ |x| = y

⇒ x = ± y

which is an element in Z (domain).
So, for every element in the co-domain, there exists a pre-image in the domain.
Thus, f is onto.
