@Frwakygamereyes a relation defined from x \(\longrightarrow\)y is not a function when for one value of x there are several values of y.

OpenStudy (ash2326):

I mean more than one

OpenStudy (ash2326):

See this \[x \longrightarrow y\ R: \underline{(1, 2)}, (2, 3), (4, 5), \underline{(1,6)}\] here you can see that for x=1 there are 2 values of y, so this is not a function

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Did you understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope
