Question

Which ordered pairs cause this relation NOT to be a function? Why? {(0, 0.5), (0.5, 1), (3, 1), (1, 6), (3, 2)} A) (0.5, 1) and (0, 0.5); A function cannot contain decimals. B) (0.5, 1), (3, 1); The same y-value has different x-values. C) (3, 1) and (3, 2); The same x-value has different y-values. D) (3, 1) and (3, 2); The x-value in a function cannot be greater than the y

Answer 1

Answer:

C) (3, 1) and (3, 2); The same x-value has different y-values.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ordered pairs are:

{(0, 0.5), (0.5, 1), (3, 1), (1, 6), (3, 2)} A) (0.5, 1) and (0, 0.5)}

This relation is not a function because there is an x-value having two different y-values.

This occurred in (3,1) and (3,2).

This will cause a vertical line to intersect the graph of this relation at more than one point. Hence it fails the vertical line test.

The correct answer is C
