Determine whether each function is an injection and determine whether each is a surjection.The notation Z_(n) refers to the set {0,1,2,...,n-1}. For example, Z_(4)={0,1,2,3}. f: Z_(6) -> Z_(6) defined by f(x)=x^(2)+4(mod6). g: Z_(5) -> Z_(5) defined by g(x)=x^(2)-11(mod5). h: Z*Z -> Z defined by h(x,y)=x+2y. j: R-{3} -> R defined by j(x)=(4x)/(x-3).
Determine whether each function is an injection and determine whether each is a surjection.
Let A
=
{a, b, c, d}, B = {a,b,c}, and C = {s, t, u,v}. Draw an arrow diagram of a function
for each of the following descriptions. If no such function exists, briefly explain why.
(a) A function f : AC whose range is the set C.
(b) A function g: BC whose range is the set C.
(c) A function g: BC that is injective.
(d) A function j : A → C that is not bijective.
