This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth.

## Original question and givens

The declared total function f:A→B has A={-3, -2, -1, 0}, B={0, 1, 2}, and table {(-3, 0), (-2, 1), (-1, 2), (0, 0)}. Is f both injective and surjective? Decide bijectivity from the actual table.


- G001 — The declared total function f:A→B has A={-3, -2, -1, 0}, B={0, 1, 2}, and table {(-3, 0), (-2, 1), (-1, 2), (0, 0)}. Is f both injective and surjective? Decide bijectivity from the actual table.





## Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

## Step-by-step derivation

S001 · impliesBefore

A=[-3, -2, -1, 0]; B=[0, 1, 2]; table=[[-3, 0], [-2, 1], [-1, 2], [0, 0]]

After

legal total function on the declared A→B

Conditions: none

First check exactly one table value for every A-element,and no input outside A or output outside B.Injectivity and surjectivity refer to this declared codomain.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: declared_total_function · Uses: G001





S002 · impliesBefore

input -3

After

f(-3)=0∈B; exactly one listed value

Conditions: none

Audit each domain row of the total function,not just set cardinalities.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: total_function_row · Uses: G001, S001





S003 · impliesBefore

input -2

After

f(-2)=1∈B; exactly one listed value

Conditions: none

Audit each domain row of the total function,not just set cardinalities.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: total_function_row · Uses: G001, S002





S004 · impliesBefore

input -1

After

f(-1)=2∈B; exactly one listed value

Conditions: none

Audit each domain row of the total function,not just set cardinalities.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: total_function_row · Uses: G001, S003





S005 · impliesBefore

input 0

After

f(0)=0∈B; exactly one listed value

Conditions: none

Audit each domain row of the total function,not just set cardinalities.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: total_function_row · Uses: G001, S004





S006 · impliesBefore

target 0; all source rows examined

After

fiber=[-3, 0]; size=2

Conditions: none

List every preimage of this target;an unhit codomain element still has an empty fiber of size0.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: complete_codomain_fiber · Uses: G001, S005





S007 · impliesBefore

target 1; all source rows examined

After

fiber=[-2]; size=1

Conditions: none

List every preimage of this target;an unhit codomain element still has an empty fiber of size0.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: complete_codomain_fiber · Uses: G001, S006





S008 · impliesBefore

target 2; all source rows examined

After

fiber=[-1]; size=1

Conditions: none

List every preimage of this target;an unhit codomain element still has an empty fiber of size0.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: complete_codomain_fiber · Uses: G001, S007





S009 · impliesBefore

[[0, [-3, 0]]]

After

all fibers have size≤1: No

Conditions: none

Injectivity forbids distinct inputs with the same output,exactly the condition that every fiber has size at most1.It holds vacuously for an empty domain.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: injectivity_fiber_test · Uses: G001, S008





S010 · impliesBefore

missing codomain targets=[]

After

all codomain fibers nonempty: Yes

Conditions: none

Surjectivity requires a preimage for every codomain element.The universal condition is true for an empty codomain,but the total-function premise is still required.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: surjectivity_fiber_test · Uses: G001, S009





S011 · impliesBefore

injective=No;surjective=Yes

After

requested result=No

Conditions: none

A bijection is both injective and surjective;the fiber profile is numerically ordered over the entire codomain,including zero fibers.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: bijection_requested_classification · Uses: G001, S010

## Result

No

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
