Let A be the set of all 3 3 scalar matrices with real entries. If f: A R is defined by f(m)= det (m) ; m A , then f is
Options
- Aone-one but not onto
- Bonto but not one-one
- Cbijective
- Dneither one-one nor onto
Correct answer
C. bijective
Step-by-step solution
A be a scalar matrix aligned A & = [ array ccc m & 0 & 0 0 & m & 0 0 & 0 & m array ] |A| & =m^3 f(m)=m^3 aligned f(m) is increasing function for all values of m . f(m) is injective. Range of f(m)=R= codomain f(m) is surjective. Hence, f(m) is bijective.
