Homework Statement
Let [itex]f: X \rightarrow Y[/itex] be a function. Suppose [itex]A[/itex] is a subset of [itex]X[/itex]. Show that if [itex]f[/itex] is injective, then [itex]f(A^{c})\subseteq f(A)^{c}[/itex].
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
If [itex]x \in A^{c}[/itex], then there is a [itex]y \in f(A^{c})[/itex] such that [itex]f(x)=y[/itex]. As [itex]f[/itex] is an injection, [itex]y \notin f(A)[/itex], hence [itex]y \in f(A)^{c}[/itex].
Is that alright?
