Given the set ordered pairs: (0,2), (1,4), (3,5), and (1,8)

To be able to determine if they represent a linear function, the set of pairs should have their own unique x and y coordinates.

In the given set, (1,4) and (1,8) has common x coordinates.

Therefore, the given set of ordered pairs does not represent a linear function.
