Q60 / 80 · NEST (NISER) 2024 (Session 2) · Mathematics
For $m, n \in \mathbb{Z}$, let $f_{m, n}: \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}$ be the function defined as $f_{m, n}(x)=m x+n \quad$ for all $x \in \mathbb{Z}$.
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be the collection of all such functions, that is, $\mathcal{F}=\left\{f_{m, n}: m, n \in \mathbb{Z}\right\}$. Then
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be the collection of all such functions, that is, $\mathcal{F}=\left\{f_{m, n}: m, n \in \mathbb{Z}\right\}$. Then
- Aevery element of $\mathcal{F}$ is bijective
- Correct answerB$\mathcal{F}$ has infinitely many elements which are bijective and infinitely many elements which are not bijective
- C$\mathcal{F}$ has only finitely many elements which are bijective
- Dno element of $\mathcal{F}$ is bijective
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
