State with reason whether following functions have inverse
g : {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with
g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}
It is given that g : {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with
g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}
From the given definition of,
We can see that f is a many one function as:
g(5) = g(7) = 4
= > g is not one- one.
Therefore, function g does not have an inverse.
