The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the number of one-one functions \( f: A \to B \) where \( A = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\} \) and \( B = \{6, 7, 8\} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the sizes of sets A and B - The set \( A \) has 5 elements: \( |A| = 5 \) - The set \( B \) has 3 elements: \( |B| = 3 \) ### Step 2: Understand the condition for one-one functions A function \( f \) is one-one (or injective) if every element in set \( A \) maps to a unique element in set \( B \). This means that no two elements in \( A \) can map to the same element in \( B \). ### Step 3: Apply the condition for one-one functions For a one-one function to exist from set \( A \) to set \( B \), the number of elements in set \( B \) must be greater than or equal to the number of elements in set \( A \). In mathematical terms, this is expressed as: \[ |B| \geq |A| \] ### Step 4: Check the condition In our case: - \( |A| = 5 \) - \( |B| = 3 \) Since \( 3 < 5 \), the condition \( |B| \geq |A| \) is not satisfied. ### Step 5: Conclusion Since the condition for the existence of one-one functions is not met, there are no one-one functions possible from set \( A \) to set \( B \). Thus, the number of one-one functions \( f: A \to B \) is: \[ \text{Number of one-one functions} = 0 \] ### Final Answer: The number of all such functions \( y = f(x) \) which are one-one is **0**. ---
