Could you explain how to show 7.13 in detail?

Definition. Let X and Y be topological spaces. A function or map f : X → Y is a
continuous function or continuous map if and only if for every open set U in Y,
f-'(U) is open in X.
Definition. Let f : X → Y be a function between topological spaces X and Y, and
let x e X. Then f is continuous at the point x if and only if for every open set
V containing f(x), there is an open set U containing x such that f(U) c V. Thus a
function f : X → Y is continuous if and only if it is continuous at each point.
Theorem 7.13. Let f : X → Y be a function and let B be a basis for Y. Then f is
continuous if and only if for every open set B in B, f-'(B) is open in X.
