(i) Given that f: {1, 2, 3, 4} → {10} with f = {(1, 10), (2, 10), (3, 10), (4, 10)}
We have, f (1) = f (2) = f (3) = f (4) = 10
⇒ f is not one-one.
⇒ f is not a bijection.
Therefore, f does not have an inverse.
(ii) Given that g: {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}
from question, it is clear that g(5) = g(7) = 4
⇒ f is not one-one.
⇒ f is not a bijection.
Therefore, f does not have an inverse.
(iii) Given that h: {2, 3, 4, 5} → {7, 9, 11, 13} with h = {(2, 7), (3, 9), (4, 11), (5, 13)}
Here, different elements of the domain have different images in the co-domain.
⇒ h is one-one.
Also, each element in the co-domain has a pre-image in the domain.
⇒ h is onto.
⇒ h is a bijection.
So, h inverse exists.
⇒ h has an inverse and it is given by
h-1= {(7, 2), (9, 3), (11, 4), (13, 5)}
