Which relation describes a function? What makes it a function? A) {(2,3),(3,3),(3,4)} Each member of the domain and range is positive. B) {(-2,3),(-4,5),(-6,7)} Each member of the domain and range is unique. C) {(2,3),(3,3),(3,4)} Each member of the domain and range is a real number. D) {(-2,3),(-3,3),(-4,3)} Each member of the domain is assigned exactly one member of the range.
if x-coordinate repeats at least twice, then the relation is not a function.
so..
Okay, I will give you some examples.
Example 1) Question: (1,2) , (-2,-4) , (4,-5) , (1,-5) Answer: not a function. Reason: x-coordinate 1 repeats more than once in points, (\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm 1 }\) ,2) (\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm 1 }\),-5) Example 2) Question: (3,2) , (4,5) , (7,5) , (1,-5) Answer: yes, a function. Reason: y-coordinate 1 repeats more than once in points, (4,\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm 5 }\) ) (7,\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm 5 }\)) but, y-coordinate is ALLOWED TO REPEAT.
