Answer:

  • domain: {-1, 2, 3}
  • range: {-3, 4, 5}
  • mapping diagram is attached
  • NOT a function

Explanation:

You want to know the domain and range of the relation {(-1, 5). (3, 4), (2, 5), (-1, -3)}, and whether it is a function.

Domain

The domain is the list of x-values in the (x, y) pairs. We conventionally eliminate duplicates and put them in order.

{ -1, 2, 3} . . . . domain

Range

The range is the list of y-values in the (x, y) pairs. Again, duplicates are eliminated, and they are put in order.

{-3, 4, 5} . . . . range

Mapping diagram

The mapping diagram is a visual aid that has domain values on the left, range values on the right, and arrows showing how the domain values map to the range values. Such a diagram is attached.

Function

If there are multiple arrow tails extending from any given domain value, the relation is not a function. This relation maps -1 to multiple values, so it is not a function.
