Solution

f is neither one-one nor onto.

Explanation:

f : R → R is defined as f(x) = x4

Let x, y ∈ R such that f(x) = f(y).

⇒ x4 = y4

⇒ x = ±y

∴ f(x1) = f(x2) does not imply that x1 = x2.

For instance,

f(1) = f(–1) = 1

∴ f is not one-one.

Consider an element 2 in co-domain R. It is clear that there does not exist any x in domain R such that f(x) = 2.

∴ f is not onto.

Hence, function f is neither one-one nor onto.
