A function is defined as a relation in which  each element of a given set (the domain of the function) is associated with an element of another set ( the range of the function).

Note that it is ' an element' in the second set  NOT more than one element.

If a graph fails the vertical line test ( the line passes through the graph more than once) it means that there is more than one element in the range  associated with the element in the domain - so it is not a function.

Answer:


Sample Response: If a vertical line intersects a graph more than once, then the graph has more than one y-value for a given x-value. You can't have two y-values for an x-value in a function. Therefore, the graph is not a function.

Answer:

x > 27

not sure if the answer can be left that way or do you assume that test results are whole numbers, if so then the answer  would b=have to be 28.. but I think that >27 is the answer expected

What’s the value of the underlined digit in each number?<br> 0.679<br> 1.556<br> 6.8
Aleks [24]
For the first 6, we see that it is exactly one place behind the decimal point, therefore meaning that it is in the tenths place. The second 6 is three places behind the decimal place making it in the thousandths place. The third and final 6 is one place in front of the decimal, therefore it is in the ones place. Hope this helps!
