Question

I need to know if there functions or not (algebra)

Answer 1

Number 14 is a function and Number 16 is NOT a function.

Explanation:

To check if a set of numbers form a function, you can look at the x values or the imput values.

For number 14 the x values are : 4,-3,-4,5,6. When looking at these values, there can only be one of each number.

For example in number 16, there's two 0's and we cannot allow that! So therefore, number 16 is not a function.

Also note, the y values are called the outputs.

A function is only allowed to have ONE imput with each output.

Hope this helps! :)
