Let $$A = \left \{x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}, ...., x_{7}\right \}, B = \left \{y_{1}, y_{2}, y_{3}\right \}$$. The total number of functions $$f : A\rightarrow B$$ that are on to and there are exactly three element $$x$$ in $$A$$ such that $$f(x) = y_{2}$$ is equal to

A$$490$$
Correct Answer
B$$510$$
C$$630$$
DNone of these

Solution

Three elements from set $$'A'$$ can be selected in $$^{7}C_{3}$$ ways. Their image has be $$y_{2}$$. Remaining $$2$$ images can be assigned to remaining $$4$$ pre-images in $$2^{4}$$ ways. But the function is onto, hence the number of ways is $$2^{4} - 2$$. Then the total number of functions is $$^{7}C_{3} \times 14 = 490$$.
