The range of the following relation: R: {(3, -2), (1, 2), (-1, -4), (-1, 2)} is A) {-1, 1, 3} B) {-1, -1, 1, 3} C) {-4, -2, 2, 2} D) {-4, -2, 2} ITS NOT C

its not C because a set doesn't repeat values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, but how do I solve this?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the range is all the y's when the coordinate pairs are { (x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), ... }

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

( but dont repeat if y_2 = y_4, just use the first one)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorry but I don't understand at all. all im getting from what your saying would make the answer -2,2,4,2 but then I have no idea what the second part ment

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

you have {-2,2,4,2} but this repeats the value 2 twice, the set that is the range should not repeat values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then it would just be -2, 4?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

leave one 2 in it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2, 4, 2? I already had a 2 in it

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

wait it should be -4 not 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so then its D?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

and the order of the elements in a set doesn't matter

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Yeah you got it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

[normally i'd arrange the elements in the set from smallest to largest ]
