Which relation is a function?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

I see this

"Which relation is a function?

A {(-3,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}

B {(6,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}

C {(-3,4),(3,-8),(3,8)}

D {(-3,4),(3,5),(-3,8)}"

So the answer is none of these.

Please make sure you have the correct problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of points is a function if you have all your x's are different.  That is, all the x's must be distinct. There can be no value of x that appears more than once.

If you look at choice A, this is not a function because the first two points share the same x, which is -3.

Choice B is not a function because the first and last point share the same x, which is 6.

Choice C is not a function because the last two points share the same x, which is 3.

Choice D is not a function because the first and last choice share the same x, which is -3.

None of your choices show a function.

If you don't have that choice you might want to verify you written the problem correctly.

This is what I see:

"Which relation is a function?

A {(-3,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}

B {(6,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}

C {(-3,4),(3,-8),(3,8)}

D {(-3,4),(3,5),(-3,8)}"

A laboratory technician can clean 34 pipettes every hour with an automatic washer. How many can he clean in 12 minutes? (Hint: B
Semmy [17]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

you can do a ratio where you have 34 over 60 then cross multiply that ratio with x over 12 and 60x=408 and it equals 6.8 but I am assuming you have to round up.
