Which of the following is not a function?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: B

Number on the left: x-value
Number on the right: y-value

If there are 2 y-values for one x-value it is NOT considered a function.

For instance in the answer:

(2,3), (2,4), (3,3), (3,4)

You can clearly see that the x-values (2 & 3) repeat more than once; therefore, it is NOT a function.

On the other hand if you have 2 DIFFERENT x-values for the same y-value it IS A FUNCTION.

For ex D: (2,4), (3,4), (5,4), (6,4)

As you can see there are 4 DIFFERENT x-values with same y-value; therefore it is A FUNCTION

To make it easier:

If x-values appear more than once = NOT A FUNCTION

If x-values appear only ONCE = FUNCTION

Remember: y-values are ALLOWED to repeat

I hope this helps. If you have any questions please let me know in the comments.

The sum of 13 divided by a number and that number divided by 13

7nadin3 [17]

Sum means add

the number is x

13 divided by a number is 13/x
the number divided by the number is x/13

so
$\frac{13}{x}+\frac{x}{13}$
also can be simplified to
$\frac{169}{13x}+\frac{x^2}{13x}$ or
$\frac{x62+169}{13x}$

translated it is $\frac{13}{x}+\frac{x}{13}$ where x is the number
