i dont understand funtions please help Which ordered pairs in the form of (x,y) does not represent a funtion of x? (-1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(5,2) (-1,2),(3,2)(-2,2),(0,2) (1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(3,5) and (-1,2),(2,3),(3,-2),(-2,0)
what kind of functions?
(-1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(5,2) -1,2/3,2/-2,2/0,2 1,2/3,2/0,1/3,5 and -1,2/2,3/3,-2/-2,0
can you explain how i would solve this
I don't understand ur question
those four sets are the ordered pairs they gave me in (x,y) form im to find which set does not represent a function of x
(-1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(5,2) (-1,2),(3,2)(-2,2),(0,2) (1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(3,5) and (-1,2),(2,3),(3,-2),(-2,0)
hm you might want to tag some people
im new on here i wouldnt know to to tag
who to tag
just put the @ sign
there are many people online
but to who is the question i dont know who to @
go to the home page of mathematics and on the right you will see all the people online tag them

thanks @Mehek14
Look for sets of points that have repeated x values to find the non-function. Example: { (5,7), (5,8), (10,19), (12,27) } The x coordinate x = 5 pops up more than once, so this relation isn't a function.
so to find the answer for my question i would only have to find the x the repeats?
yes
so c would be the answer?
(1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(3,5) this one?
yep it's (1,2),(3,2),(0,1),(3,5) since x = 3 shows up twice
A function must produce exactly one output for any given input. With the input of 3, we ask ourselves "what is the true output? 2? or 5?". Since we don't know for sure we just say it's not a function
thanks so much you explain that better than my teacher could you help with a few more? like explain them to me?
sure I can help
