Question

4. Suppose $A = \mathbb{R} - \{-1\}$ and $B = \mathbb{R} - \{0\}$. Consider the function $g: B \to A$ given by the rule $g(x) = \frac{1 - x}{x}$. Carefully prove that $g$ is a bijection (i.e., $g$ is both one-to-one and onto).

4. Suppose A = ℝ - {-1} and B = ℝ - {0}. Consider the function g: B → A given by the rule
g(x) = (1 - x)/(x). Carefully prove that g is a bijection (i.e., g is both one-to-one and onto).
