Expert Solution

Step 1
Actually, the the difficult part is not to find such function f but to find such space X. Here I have given one example.
Take X be the topologist's sign curve (consider this as a subspace of R^2)
i.e. X = {(0,y) : -1<=y<=1} U {(x, sin(1/x)) : 0<x<=1}
This X is a famous example of a space which is connected but not path connected.
Now, Take Y = R
