A function is called one-one if each element of domain has a distinct image in co-domain or
for any two or more than two elements of domain, function doesn’t have same value.
Otherwise, function will be many-one. Function is called onto if co-domain = Range
otherwise into. Function which is both one-one and onto, is called bijective. Inverse is

COMPREHENSION ( 11-12)
Functions in mathematics may satisfy some functional relations.
For example, the function f(x) = 3x satisfies f (x + y) = f(x) + f(y) and f(x) = log x satisfies f(xy) = f(x) + f(y).
From the given functional relations, we can determine several things about the function.
