Theorem

Let $S$ and $T$ be sets.

Let $\family {S_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$ be a family of subsets of $S$.

Let $f: S \to T$ be a mapping.


Then:

$\ds f \sqbrk {\bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} S_i} \subseteq \bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} f \sqbrk {S_i}$

where $\ds \bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} S_i$ denotes the intersection of $\family {S_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$.


Proof

As $f$, being a mapping, is also a relation, we can apply Image of Intersection under Relation: Family of Sets:

$\ds \RR \sqbrk {\bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} S_i} \subseteq \bigcap_{i \mathop \in I} \RR \sqbrk {S_i}$

$\blacksquare$
