f : R → R is given by f (x) = 2x
Let x1, x2 ∈ R such that f (x1) = f (x2)
∴ 2x1 = 2 x2 ⇒ x1 = x2 ∴ f is one-one.
Also, given any real number y ∈ R, there exists
such that
∴ f is onto.
Show that the relation R in the set A of all the books in a library of a college given by R = {(x, y): x and y have same number of pages} is an equivalence relation.
