Math Problem Statement
Which of these functions defines one-to-one correspondence from (0, 2) to (3, β)?
A) 2/π₯ + 2 B) 3/x + 3
C) 1/x + 2
D) 1/x + 3
E) None of the mentioned
Solution
To determine which of these functions defines a one-to-one correspondence (bijection) from the domain to the range , we analyze the behavior of each function.
Step 1: Criteria for One-to-One Correspondence
- Injective (One-to-One): Each in the domain maps to a unique in the range.
- Surjective (Onto): Every value in the range must be reachable from some in the domain .
Step 2: Analyze Each Function
A)
- Domain Check: For , is defined.
- Range Check:
- As , , so .
- As , , so .
- Range: .
- is strictly decreasing (derivative is negative), ensuring injectivity.
This function is a bijection.
B)
- Domain Check: For , is defined.
- Range Check:
- As , , so .
- As , , so .
- Range: .
- Since , this is not surjective.
Not a bijection.
C)
- Domain Check: For , is defined.
- Range Check:
- As , , so .
- As , , so .
- Range: .
- Since , this is not surjective.
Not a bijection.
D)
- Domain Check: For , is defined.
- Range Check:
- As , , so .
- As , , so .
- Range: .
- Since , this is not surjective.
Not a bijection.
E) None of the mentioned
Since satisfies the conditions for a bijection from to , this option is incorrect.

- What changes in the function domain or codomain would make bijective?
Tip: Always test the limits of a function at the boundaries of its domain to verify its range.
