HELP! Which of the following is true about the relation? There are 5 elements in the range. The domain is {1 2 3}. The mapping diagram shows 3 ordered pairs. 1 is a y-coordinate.
The domain is {1 2 3}.
The range is on the right. The domain is on the left. An ordered pair is any one of those lines. Generally, the domain is the x coordinate and the range is the y coordinate. That should be all the information you need to figure it out on your own.
um
Haha okay. Let's break it down. A function is a rule for mapping one set of things to another set of things. Usually those things are numbers. The things on the left are the domain, or the x coordinate and they get mapped to the things on the right, or the y coordinate. Each line represents a mapping and can be written as an ordered pair like this: (x,y) where x is on the left side and y is on the right. So first question. "There are 5 elements in the range" The range is on the right, and has 4, 8, 10, and 14. That's four elements. So false.
Second question: "The domain is {1 2 3}" The domain is on the left and it has 1, 2, and 3 in it. So true!
Third: "The mapping diagram shows 3 ordered pairs" Each line represents an ordered pair. There are 5 lines, so there are 5 ordered pairs. So false.
Fourth: "1 is a y coordinate" The y coordinates are on the right, or part of the range. 1 is not in the right column box. So false.
