best_answer

f : Z \rightarrow Z

f(x) = x^3

One- one:

For   (x,y) \in Z  then f(x) = f(y)

                                            x^{3}=y^{3}

                                            x=y 

\therefore  f is one- one i.e. injective.

For  3 \in Z  there is no x in Z such that f(x)=x^{3}= 3

\therefore  f is not onto i.e. not surjective.

Hence, f is injective but not surjective.
