How many functions \(f: \mathbf{Z} \rightarrow \mathbf{Z}\) are there such that \(f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)\) for all \(x, y \in \mathbf{Z}\) ?

  1. A 1
  2. B 2
  3. C 3
  4. D Infinitely many
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Infinitely many

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(F: z \longrightarrow z\) \(f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)\) As sum of \(z\) integers always gives an integer so, there is no restriction and hence infinite such functions are possible.
