PLEASE HELP ME Determine which relation is a function. {(−5, 1), (−5, 0), (−2, 1), (−1, 4), (6, 2)} {(−5, 1), (−2, 0), (−2, 2), (3, 4), (6, 2)} {(−5, 1), (−2, 0), (−1, 1), (2, 4), (6, 3)} {(−5, 3), (−2, 0), (−1, 2), (6, 4), (6, 3)}

In a function, a given x value can be paired with exactly one y value for that x.

Directrix (directrix):

So, in option A, {(−5, 1), (−5, 0), (−2, 1), (−1, 4), (6, 2)} -5 is paired to 1 and -5 is also pair to 0. Therefore, Option A is not a function relation..

@cinnnamon Look at the other options and post which one you think is a function, okay?

C? @Directrix

Let me see if the same x is going two different places. {(−5, 1), (−2, 0), (−1, 1), (2, 4), (6, 3)} C, I agree.
