Question 17. Consider the function F : P(Z) → P(Z) defined by F(X)= X. For example, if X is the set of even integers, then F(X) = X be the set of odd integers. Determine if F is surjective, injective, or neither. Provide proofs or give counter-examples.

Please help me with question 17 from the picture that I uploaded. I would really appreciate it! :)

Question 17. Consider the function F : P(Z) → P(Z) defined by F(X) = X. For example, if X
is the set of even integers, then F(X) = X be the set of odd integers. Determine if F is surjective,
injective, or neither. Provide proofs or give counter-examples.
A function having finite sets of the same size for the domain and codomain of a function means
special things for injectivity and surjectivity. That is, if a function f : X → Y is one-to-one, with
both X and Y finite and the same size (i.e., same number of elements), then f is also onto. And
the converse is true as well. But this is no longer true when we have an infinite set like N or Z
involved.
