Question

Part 1 state the domain and range of the given relation.

Answer 1

A relation is any set of ordered pairs, which can be thought of as (input, output).

A function is a relation in which NO two ordered pairs have the same first component and different second components.

The set of first components (x-coordinates) in the ordered pairs is the DOMAIN of the relation.

The set of second components (y-coordinates) is the RANGE of the relation.

Part 1:
Domain: {-1, 1, 3, 6}
Range: {2, 2, 2, 2}

Part 2:
To determine whether the given relation represents a function, look at the given relation and ask yourself, “Does every first element (or input) correspond with EXACTLY ONE second element (or output)?”

Remember that a function can only take on 1 output for each input.

It helps to plot the points on the graph and perform the Vertical Line Test (VLT):

The Vertical Line Test allows us to know whether or not a graph is actually a function. If a vertical line intersects the graph in all places at exactly one point, then the relation is a function.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, every vertical line drawn only has 1 point in it. This means that each x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value. The given relation passed the VLT. Therefore, the relation is a function.
