Yes the relation is a function
No be because the denominator it an odd number and you can't divide an odd number hope i helped in anyway

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that x1=−1, y1=5, x2=3, y2=7.
Plug the given values into the formula for a slope: m=7−(5)3−(−1)=12.
Now, the y-intercept is b=y1−mx1 (or b=y2−mx2, the result is the same).
b=5−(12)(−1)=112
Finally, the equation of the line can be written in the form y=b+mx:
y=112+x2
ANSWER
Let the number of comic books be X
if we add 14 to X = 24
so we will find the value of X to get half initial number of comic books William had.
14+X=24
X=24-14
X=10
so the total innitial number of comic books William had is 10+10=20 books.
