The inverse of a relation is graphed below. Is the original relation a function? http://media.apexlearning.com/Images/201306/19/c8a19f75-7cff-4cb6-aafd-5c6bd9be0ffc.jpg A. True B. False

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would this be false ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or true considering it reflexs over ?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, have you heard of something called the vertical line test?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes if the line intersects a graph at only one point the graph then would represent an inverse. right?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

if we draw a vertical line through the graph, the vertical line crosses the function more than once, so the graph is not a function. this also means the inverse IS a function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be true . correct?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yup

thanks so much
