0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20

0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds

0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues

The relation R is shown below as a list of ordered
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(1, 4) and (1,3), because they have the same x-value

Step-by-step explanation:

For a relation to be regarded as a function, there should be no two y-values assigned to an x-value. However, two different x-values can have the same y-values.

In the relation given in the equation, the ordered pairs (1,4) and (1,3), prevent the relation from being a function because, two y-values were assigned to the same x-value. x = 1, is having y = 4, and 3 respectively.

Therefore, the relation is not a function anymore if both ordered pairs are included.

<em>The ordered pairs which make the relation not to be a function are: "(1, 4) and (1,3), because they have the same x-value".</em>
