Graph the relation shown in the table. Is the relation a function? Why or why not? {(-1, 9), (0, -1), (-1, 4), (4, 9)}

Answer:

Not a function

Explanation:

For an equation to be a function, there should be only one y-coordinate per x-coordinate. Since this relation has both (-1,9) and (-1,4), this is not a function.

Answer:not a function

Explanation:

because when you put the points on the coordinate plane your shape will come out as a v shaped object. In mathematics, a function is a binary relation over two sets that associates to every element of the first set exactly one element of the second set. Typical examples are functions from integers to integers or from the real numbers to real numbers
