Correct answer: B

  1. Find the set AAA

Since 2310=2⋅3⋅5⋅7⋅11,2310 = 2\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 7\cdot 11,2310=2⋅3⋅5⋅7⋅11, the set of all prime factors is A={2,3,5,7,11}.A=\{2,3,5,7,11\}.A={2,3,5,7,11}. So, ∣A∣=5|A|=5∣A∣=5.

  1. Compute f(x)f(x)f(x) for each x∈Ax\in Ax∈A

Given f(x)=[log⁡2(x2+[x35])].f(x)=\left[\log_2\left(x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]\right)\right].f(x)=[log2​(x2+[5x3​])]. We evaluate one by one.


For x=2x=2x=2

[235]=[85]=[1.6]=1.\left[\frac{2^3}{5}\right]=\left[\frac{8}{5}\right]=[1.6]=1.[523​]=[58​]=[1.6]=1. So, x2+[x35]=4+1=5.x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]=4+1=5.x2+[5x3​]=4+1=5. Hence, f(2)=[log⁡25].f(2)=\left[\log_2 5\right].f(2)=[log2​5]. Now, 22=4<5<8=23,2^2=4<5<8=2^3,22=4<5<8=23, so log⁡25∈(2,3)  ⟹  [log⁡25]=2.\log_2 5\in(2,3)\implies \left[\log_2 5\right]=2.log2​5∈(2,3)⟹[log2​5]=2. Thus, f(2)=2.f(2)=2.f(2)=2.


For x=3x=3x=3

[335]=[275]=[5.4]=5.\left[\frac{3^3}{5}\right]=\left[\frac{27}{5}\right]=[5.4]=5.[533​]=[527​]=[5.4]=5. So, x2+[x35]=9+5=14.x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]=9+5=14.x2+[5x3​]=9+5=14. Hence, f(3)=[log⁡214].f(3)=\left[\log_2 14\right].f(3)=[log2​14]. Now, 23=8<14<16=24,2^3=8<14<16=2^4,23=8<14<16=24, so [log⁡214]=3.\left[\log_2 14\right]=3.[log2​14]=3. Thus, f(3)=3.f(3)=3.f(3)=3.


For x=5x=5x=5

[535]=[1255]=25.\left[\frac{5^3}{5}\right]=\left[\frac{125}{5}\right]=25.[553​]=[5125​]=25. So, x2+[x35]=25+25=50.x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]=25+25=50.x2+[5x3​]=25+25=50. Hence, f(5)=[log⁡250].f(5)=\left[\log_2 50\right].f(5)=[log2​50]. Now, 25=32<50<64=26,2^5=32<50<64=2^6,25=32<50<64=26, so [log⁡250]=5.\left[\log_2 50\right]=5.[log2​50]=5. Thus, f(5)=5.f(5)=5.f(5)=5.


For x=7x=7x=7

[735]=[3435]=[68.6]=68.\left[\frac{7^3}{5}\right]=\left[\frac{343}{5}\right]=[68.6]=68.[573​]=[5343​]=[68.6]=68. So, x2+[x35]=49+68=117.x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]=49+68=117.x2+[5x3​]=49+68=117. Hence, f(7)=[log⁡2117].f(7)=\left[\log_2 117\right].f(7)=[log2​117]. Now, 26=64<117<128=27,2^6=64<117<128=2^7,26=64<117<128=27, so [log⁡2117]=6.\left[\log_2 117\right]=6.[log2​117]=6. Thus, f(7)=6.f(7)=6.f(7)=6.


For x=11x=11x=11

[1135]=[13315]=[266.2]=266.\left[\frac{11^3}{5}\right]=\left[\frac{1331}{5}\right]=[266.2]=266.[5113​]=[51331​]=[266.2]=266. So, x2+[x35]=121+266=387.x^2+\left[\frac{x^3}{5}\right]=121+266=387.x2+[5x3​]=121+266=387. Hence, f(11)=[log⁡2387].f(11)=\left[\log_2 387\right].f(11)=[log2​387]. Now, 28=256<387<512=29,2^8=256<387<512=2^9,28=256<387<512=29, so [log⁡2387]=8.\left[\log_2 387\right]=8.[log2​387]=8. Thus, f(11)=8.f(11)=8.f(11)=8.


  1. Find the range of fff

From above, f(A)={2,3,5,6,8}.f(A)=\{2,3,5,6,8\}.f(A)={2,3,5,6,8}. All values are distinct, so the range has 5 elements.

Thus, ∣Range(f)∣=5.|\text{Range}(f)|=5.∣Range(f)∣=5.

  1. Count one-to-one functions from AAA to the range of fff

We need the number of injective functions from a 5-element set to another 5-element set.

Any one-to-one function from a 5-element set to a 5-element set is a bijection. Hence the number is 5!=120.5! = 120.5!=120.

  1. Final answer

120\boxed{120}120​ So the correct option is B.
