OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

the one that doesn't have X REPEATS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

notice, you have an ordered pair set say for example the first set (6, 5), (1, 1), (6, 4) x y x y x y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would i know if its x of y?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

"x" is always the 1st in the pair, and "y", well is the 2nd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so d os outa the answer?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so the set that doesn't have a 1st number, or "x" value, repeated let us check the first set for example \(\bf ({\color{red}{ 6}}, 5), (1, 1), ({\color{red}{ 6}}, 4)\) do you see any "x" repeats?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the 6 and the other 6?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap, thus is not a function then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wut about 1,1?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

(1 , 1) x y x = 1 y =1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer=B?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

let's see B set \(\bf (0, 1), ({\color{red}{ 2}}, 3), ({\color{red}{ 2}}, 5)\) so.. what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

grrr

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

if you pluck out, from the set all 1st value and all 2nd values the set that has no REPEATED 1ST VALUE is a function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its c because the -2 the first time is y and the second is x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

C has two -2 but you're correct, they're not both "x" values the 1st one is a "y" value or 2nd value and the 2nd -2 is a "x" value and yes, (8, –2), (–2, 5), (6, 0) has x = 8 x = -2 and x = 6 8, -2, 6 no repeats, thus is a function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you
