Let $f:Xto Y$, and $Asubseteq X$, $Bsubseteq Y$. Show that $f[A]cap Bsubseteq f[Acap f^-1[B]]$




I've tried to introduce some elements as the preimage for $B$ but I can't seem to make sense of it.

          The sets are even the same.



          $$yin f[A]cap Biffexists xin A; [y=f(x)wedge yin B]iffexists xin A; [y=f(x)wedge f(x)in B]tag1$$
          $$yin f[Acap f^-1(B)]iffexists xin A; [y=f(x)wedge xin f^-1(B)]tag2$$



          and here: $$f(x)in Biff xin f^-1(B)$$ so that $yin f[A]cap B$ and $yin f[Acap f^-1(B)]$ are equivalent.

            Let $y in f(A)cap B$. Then $y =f(a)$ for some $a in A$. Now $a in A cap f^-1 (B)$ because $a in A$ and $f(a)=y in B$. Hence $y =f(a) in f(Acap f^-1(B))$.

              Let $y in f(A) cap B$,



              Then $y in f(A)$ and $y in B$, i.e there is a



              $a in A$ such that $y=f(a)=b in B$,



              then $a in f^-1(b) subset f^-1(B)$;



              Since $a in A$ and $a in f^-1(B)$, we have



              $a in Acap f^-1B$, and finally



              $y=f(a) in f(Acap f^-1(B))$.
