Show that f is a one-to-one function.
Proof: we are given f:A→A with f(x)=x+2x−3 and we are to proof that f is a one-to-one function. Recall that a one-to-one function is defined thus: ∀x,y∈A(f(x)=f(y)⇒x=y).
Let x,y∈A with f(x)=f(y)
⇒x+2x−3=y+2y−3
⇒(x+2)(y−3)=(x−3)(y+2)
⇒xy−3x+2y−6=xy+2x−3y−6
5y=5x⇒y=x
Hence, y=x satisfies our definition of a one-to-one function.
