Original question and givens

The declared total function f:A→B has A={-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0}, B={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, and table {(-6, 0), (-5, 1), (-4, 2), (-3, 3), (-2, 4), (-1, 5), (0, 0)}. Is f both injective and surjective? Decide bijectivity from the actual table.

  • G001 — The declared total function f:A→B has A={-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0}, B={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, and table {(-6, 0), (-5, 1), (-4, 2), (-3, 3), (-2, 4), (-1, 5), (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 · implies

Before

A=[-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0]; B=[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; table=[[-6, 0], [-5, 1], [-4, 2], [-3, 3], [-2, 4], [-1, 5], [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.
