Question

Check the injectivity and surjectivity of the following function:

f: Z → Z given by f(x) = x3

Sum

Solution

f: → Z is given by,

f(x) = x3

It is seen that for x, y ∈ Z, f(x) = f(y)

⇒ x3 = y3 

⇒ x = y.

∴ f is injective.

Now, 2 ∈ Z. But there does not exist any element x in domain Z such that f(x) = x3 = 2.

∴ f is not surjective.

Hence, function f is injective but not surjective.
