Test yourself: pick an answer
Reveal answer & explanation
Correct answer: C) 60
Explanation
A one-one function assigns distinct images to the 3 elements of A: 5 choices for the first, 4 for the second and 3 for the third, i.e. ⁵P₃ = 60. The total number of functions is 5³ = 125, 3⁵ = 243 reverses domain and co-domain, and ⁵C₃ = 10 ignores order.
