decide whether the relation is a function and justify your answer. state the domain and range

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

(-5,-2), (-1,1) (3,-6) (8,1)

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

@arabpride

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

can you fan a sista back

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Well, lemme explain... domain = x-value range = y-value In a function, you're \(range\) can be repeated, whereas your range cannot be repeated, and still be considered a function

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

its not a range right

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

I mean its not a function

OpenStudy (arabpride):

So here, you your domain values are -5, -1, 3, and 8 are any of those numbers repeated?

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

no

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Therefore, that set of solutions is a function (the y-value is repeated, but that doesn't matter in determining whether or not a set is a function).

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

so for the answer part I would write yes because there is no repeating number

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

@arabpride

OpenStudy (arabpride):

because there is not repeating DOMAIN value**

OpenStudy (arabpride):

no*

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

but this is a function right

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Yep

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

okay now I have to state the domain and range

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Well like I said, the domain is the x-value and the range is y-value (x, y)

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

it goes in least to greatest

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

I know but I need help with putting the number in order

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Just imagine a number line!

OpenStudy (arabpride):

negative values on the left, positive values on the right

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

for the range would be -5,-1,3,8

OpenStudy (arabpride):

no, that would be your domain.

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

I mean domain

OpenStudy (arabpride):

lol, yes

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

then the range would be -2,-6,1,1

OpenStudy (arabpride):

from least to greatest though? -6 is less than -2 and since the number 1 is repeated twice, you don't have to write it two times, just once is fine

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

no my teacher is picky tho

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

what then my range is -6,-2,1

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

@arabpride

OpenStudy (arabpride):

Alrighty then

OpenStudy (roxyyy):

its -6,-2 and 1 for the range then.......

OpenStudy (arabpride):

That's it
