QUESTION:

a) Give an example to show that the inclusion in part (b) in Exercise 40 may be proper________________b) Show that if f is one-to-one, the inclusion in part (b) in Exercise 40 is an equality.Let f be a function from the set A to the set B. Let S be a subset of B. We define the inverse image of S to be the subset of A whose elements are precisely all pre-images of all elements of S. We denote the inverse image of S by f-l (S). so f-1(S) {a.? A| f (a) ? S}. (Beware: The notation f-1 is used in two different ways. Do not confuse the notation introduced here with the notation f-1(y) for the value at y of the inverse of the invertible function f. Notice also that f-1(S), the inverse image of the set S, makes sense for all functions f, not just invertible functions.)

ANSWER:

SolutionStep 1In the problem we have to show the inclusion part of f(S T) f (S) f(T)Let S = {3} and T = { 4} and f(3) = 5, f(4) = 5Then first we have to evaluate intersection of S and T Intersection of S and T = { }So, f(S) = {5} and f(T) = {5}Then, f (S) f(T) = {5} {5} = {5}f(S T) f (S) f(T)Hence, it is proved that it may be proper.
