Is this relation a function? 4 10 7 8 10 14 12 11

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

look at the x column. Do any x values repeat?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Do you know the definition of a function?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so that means there are no x values that lead to multiple y values. So we have a function here IF (for example) we had x = 4 lead to y = 10 AND y = 13 at the same time, then we wouldn't have a function

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Yes every x-value (input) leads to exactly one y-value (output).
