Problem 1
At the end of this course, every student will receive a letter grade. Consider the relation of the form (Student, Grade). Here are
some example entries of this relation:
(Xenith,
(Grace,
(Eun,
(Natasha,
B+)
A)
B-)
A-)
Part A
Explain why this relation is a function. Then, describe the sets that are its domain and codomain.
Part B
Is this function injective, surjective, or bijective? For each, state either "definitely," "definitely not," or "it depends." Explain your answer
in each case.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Define the problem

Given that relation of every student with received grade

Injective:-

Each element of one set is mapped with each element of another set, it is also called one to one function

Surjective:-

If function y equals f left parenthesis x right parenthesis  then onto/surjective function is a function f that maps an element x to every element y

Bijective:-

If function is one to one and onto
