What is your question?

OpenStudy (freemap):

Which relations are functions? Choose all answers that are correct. A. {(–8, –9), (–5, –5), (1, 3), (3, 6)} B. {(–3, 0), (–1, 7), (2, 7), (8, 4)} C. {(0, 10), (0, –5), (1, 4), (3, –2)} D. {(2, 2), (3, –1), (3, 6), (12, 5)} My answers are A,C,and D

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I think that option D is wrong, since the element \(3\) has more than one image, and it is against the definition of function

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

for the same reason, also option C is wrong

OpenStudy (freemap):

I see, so you can't have the same x value as well? I thought that it was just the y value I needed to look out for

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! an element x can only have one and only one image y

OpenStudy (freemap):

Oh okay so A would only be the correct choice

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I think that there are two correct options

OpenStudy (freemap):

Option B has two 7's in the y axis

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

it is ok! since it is not against the definition of function

OpenStudy (freemap):

Really, OK I was watching out for the rule it couldn't be the same. A and B are the two correct answer choices.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (freemap):

Thank you so very much :)
