Which statement is correct about relations and functions?
aniked [119]

Definition 1: A relation is any subset of a Cartesian product. For instance, a subset of A\times B, called a "binary relation from A to B," is a collection of ordered pairs (a,b) with first components from A and second components from B, and, in particular, a subset of A\times A is called a "relation on A."

Definition 2: A function is a relation that associates each element x of a set X to a single element y of another set Y (possibly the same set). A function is uniquely represented by its graph which is the set of all ordered pairs (x, f (x)).

From these definitions you can see that every function is a relation from X to Y, but not via versa (because you can consider relation \{1\}\times \{2,3\} - here for one x exist two y).

Answer: Correct choice is B.
