OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

i might be D idk

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Apply the vertical line test

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

when i applied it D makes sense ....

OpenStudy (welshfella):

if you can draw a vertical line through more than one point anywhere in the graph it is not a function.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

D is not a function

OpenStudy (triciaal):

a relation is a function when there is only one output (y-value) for any given input (x-value)

OpenStudy (welshfella):

as you draw a vertival line through the 2 points (-1,3) and (-1,-1)

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

wait no it might be c

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Hint: the vertical line might be the y-axis.

OpenStudy (triciaal):

not C

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

so not c nor d.... hmm

OpenStudy (triciaal):

read the responses so you don't just pick one

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

A!?!

OpenStudy (triciaal):

why?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

are you sure?

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

has a y intercept but b has one too but a makes more sense

OpenStudy (triciaal):

repeat a function when for any x value only ONE y-value

OpenStudy (triciaal):

do you understand the vertical line test @welshfella mentioned?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

OpenStudy (welshfella):

- the above is NOT a function The vertical line passes through 2 points

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

i see that b has points like that

OpenStudy (welshfella):

right!!

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

OHH!! SO ITS B!?!

OpenStudy (welshfella):

?????

OpenStudy (triciaal):

please read carefully!!

OpenStudy (kise_ryouta):

b is not a function

OpenStudy (triciaal):

B has points like that for that x there are 2 y's so B is NOT a function
