Help, I'll fan and medal Can someone help me with a one-to-one function?

OpenStudy (hatahoooochee):

How can I tell if this is a one to one function

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

have you ever heard of the vertical line test?

OpenStudy (hatahoooochee):

Yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

for one to one functions we have the "horizontal line test"

OpenStudy (hatahoooochee):

If it touches it twice it isn't a function?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

that's for vertical

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

for horizontal it's the same thing, just with a horizontal line instead

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so, if you can draw a horizontal line that touches the function more than once, it is NOT a one to one function

OpenStudy (hatahoooochee):

And in this case, with that graph, it touches the function more than once, so it is not a one to one function.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

yes

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so, what do you think?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

is the graph one to one?

OpenStudy (hatahoooochee):

It is not a one to one @Vocaloid

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

great!
