Solution
f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 − 4x
Let x1, x2 ∈ R such that f(x1) = f(x2)
⇒ 3 − 4x1 = 3 − 4x2
⇒ − 4x1 = − 4x2
⇒ x1 = x2
∴ f is one-one.
f : R → R be given for every y ∈ R (co-domain of f), there exists an element x ∈ R (domain of f) such that
f(x) = y
⇒ y = 3 − 4x
For any real number y ∈ R, there exists x = `(3-y)/4 ∈ R` such that:
`f((3-y)/4)`
= `3 -4 ((3-y)/4)`
= 3 − 3 + y
= y
∴ f is onto.
Thus f is one-one and onto and hence bijective.
