Answer:

  B. {(1, 7), (2, 8), (4, 5), (0, 0), (3, 5)}

Step-by-step explanation:

You are right, it is easy. Any relation with a repeated first value is not a function.

A has (-3, -1) and (-3, -3), so the value -3 is a repeated first value.

C has (2, 5) and (2, 3), so the value 2 is a repeated first value.

D has (5, 8), (5, 9), and (5, -3), so the value 5 is a repeated first value.

None of A, C, or D is a relation that is a function. The correct choice is B, which has first values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 -- none of which is repeated.

_____

If you plot points with repeated first values, you find they lie on the same vertical line. If a vertical line passes through 2 or more points in the relation, that relation is <em>not a function</em>. We say, "it doesn't pass the vertical line test."

A relation must pass the vertical line test in order to be a function. This is true of graphs of any kind, not just graphs of discrete points.

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is B. {(1, 7), (2, 8), (4, 5), (0, 0), (3, 5)}.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are to determine whether which of the given relations in the possible answer options is a function.

We know that the x values of a function cannot be repeated. It means that for each output, there must be exactly one input.

Therefore, we will look for the relation where no x value is repeated.

Function ---> {(1, 7), (2, 8), (4, 5), (0, 0), (3, 5)}

A collection of dimes and nickels is worth $5.60. The ratio of dimes to nickels is 3:2. How many dimes and how many nickels are
PolarNik [594]
Now, the nickels and dimes are at ratio of 3:2.  However, the total amount is in dollars.  So let's convert all amounts to pennies then.

$5.60 is just 560 pennies

3 dimes is just 30 pennies

2 nickels is just 10 pennies

so, the ratio from dimes to nickels is a ratio of 30:10 pennies, or 3:1 then, for a total amount of 560 pennies.

\bf \cfrac{dimes}{nickels}\qquad 3:2\qquad\cfrac{\stackrel{pennies}{30}}{\stackrel{pennies}{10}}\implies \cfrac{30}{10}\implies \cfrac{3}{1}\implies 3:1~ratio&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\stackrel{dimes}{pennies}}{\stackrel{nickels}{pennies}}\qquad 3:1\qquad \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot \frac{560}{3+1}}{1\cdot \frac{560}{3+1}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 140}{1\cdot 140}\implies \cfrac{420}{140}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \textit{now, how many dimes in 420 pennies?}\quad \cfrac{420}{10}\implies 42~dimes&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{and how many nickels in 140 pennies?}\quad \cfrac{140}{5}\implies 28~nickels\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;42~dimes + 28~nickels\implies \$5.60
