Question
If f : A → B is an injection, such that range of f = {a}, determine the number of elements in A.
Advertisements
Solution
Range of f = {a}
So, the number of images of f = 1
Since, f is an injection, there will be exactly one image for each element of f .
So, number of elements in A = 1.

An organization conducted a bike race under 2 different categories-boys and girls. Totally there were 250 participants. Among all of them finally, three from Category 1 and two from Category 2 were selected for the final race. Ravi forms two sets B and G with these participants for his college project. Let B = {b1,b2,b3} G={g1,g2} where B represents the set of boys selected and G the set of girls who were selected for the final race.
Ravi decides to explore these sets for various types of relations and functions.
- Ravi wants to know among those relations, how many functions can be formed from B to G?
