Question

Are the following set of ordered pairs functions? If so, examine whether the mapping is injective or surjective.
{(x, y): x is a person, y is the mother of x}

Sum

Solution

Given, {(x, y): x is a person, y is the mother of x}

It’s clearly seen that each person ‘x’ has only one biological mother.

Hence, the above set of ordered pairs make a function.

Now more than one person may have same mother.

Thus, the function is many-many one and surjective.
