Question

True or false is a relation in which each y value has only 1 x value

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement is true that a function is a relation in which each y value has ONLY 1 x value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is true that a function is a relation in which each y value has ONLY 1 x value.

The reason is very clear that we can not have the repeated x-values (two same x-values).

For example, given the set of the ordered pairs of a relation

{(3, a), (6, b), (6, c)}

As the same x values (x=6) has two different Y values. Hence, the stated relation is not a function.

In order to be a function, a relation must have only 1 x-value for each y-value.

Therefore, the statement is true that a function is a relation in which each y value has ONLY 1 x value.
