Question
State whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer. f: R $\rightarrow$ R defined by f(x) = 3 - 4x.

Answer

Let (x$_1$, x2 ) $\in$ R such that
f(x1) = f(x2)
3 - 4x1 = 3 - 4x2
x1 = x2
Hence one–one
Y = 3 - 4x
$x = \left( {\frac{{3 - y}}{4}} \right)$
$f\left( {\frac{{3 - y}}{4}} \right) = 3 - 4\left( {\frac{{3 - y}}{4}} \right)$
f(x) = y
= y
Hence onto also.
