Let A and B be any two sets. If there exists a 1-1 correspondence between the sets A and B, then A and B are called ___.


A) countable

B) equivalent

C) finite

D) none of these

Correct Answer:
B) equivalent

Description for Correct answer:
If A = {1,2,3,...} and

B = {2,4,6,...} then

\(\exists\) a mapping \(f:A\rightarrow B\)

definde by \(f(x)=2x\ \forall\ x\in A\)

which is clearly one-one and onto.
