Question

Which of the following relations represent a function? A. {(-1,-1),(0,0),(2,2),(5,5)}. B. None of these. C. {(0,3),(0,-3),(-3,0),(3,0). D. {(-2,4),(-1,0),(-2,0),(2,6)

Answer 1

Answer:

  A

Step-by-step explanation:

In a list of ordered pairs, a relation that is a function will not have any repeated x-values.

A -- a function (x-values are {-1, 0, 2, 5} with no repeats)

B -- irrelevant

C -- not a function (x-values are {0, 0, -3, 3} with 0 being repeated)

D -- not a function (x-values are {-2, -1, -2, 2} with -2 being repeated)
