Question

f: Z → Z given by $f(x) = x^2$

✓

Answer

f: Z → Z is given by,
$f(x) = x^2$
It is seen that for f(= 1) = f(1) = 1, but $-1\neq1.$
$\therefore$ f is not injective.
Now, $-2\in\text{Z}.$ But, there does not exist any element $\text{x}\in\text{Z}$ such that $f(x) = x^2 = -2$.
$\therefore$ f is not surjective.
Hence, function f is neither injective but not surjective.
