Question

Which of the relations given by the following sets of ordered pairs is not a function?

0 [(5,0), (4,0), (3,0), (2,0), (1,0)}
{(-4, - 2),(-1, - 1), (- 1,1),(3,5), (7, 10)}
{(-8,3), (- 6,5), (- 4,2), ( - 2,7), ( - 1,4)}
{(-6,4), ( – 3, - 2), (0,5), (1, - 2), (2,3)}

Answer 1

{(-4, - 2),(-1, - 1), (- 1,1),(3,5), (7, 10)} is not a function.

Explanation:

For a function to be a function, there is only ever one y value per x value. In this set, -1 has two outputs, or y values. It has -1 and 1. As a result, this is not a function.
