Correct option is D
For any K=0 and K∈R, the function f:R2→R given by f(x,y)=Kxis surjective and continuous.Thus, there are uncountable number of surjective functions from R2 to R.∴Option A and B are incorrect.Now,though cadinality of R2 and R is same there doesnot exist injective function from R2 to R.due to lack of order in R2 .
Lack of Order in R2 :R2\mathbb{R}^2
- R\mathbb{R}R is an ordered set (there is a natural linear order: a<ba < ba<b).
- R2\mathbb{R}^2R2 does not have a natural linear order, which means any attempt to map R2\mathbb{R}^2mmmmmR2 to R\mathbb{R}R
- while preserving the topology will fail to be injective, as it would require collapsing multiple 2D points onto a single 1D point.
So, there is no bijection between R2 and R .
