Answer: Choice D)

{(1, 4), (2, 3), (3, 2), (4, 1)}

========================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices one at a time to see what is a function and what isn't.

  • A) This is <u>not</u> a function because x = 3 repeats itself. In other words, the input x = 3 leads to multiple outputs (y = 3 and y = 2 simultaneously). A function is only possible if any x input leads to exactly one y output.
  • B) This isn't a function either for similar reasoning as choice A. This time x = 2 repeats itself.
  • C) Same idea as the others. We don't have a function because x = 1 repeats itself.
  • D) Each x input is only listed once, so we don't have any x repeats. Therefore, relation D is a function.

In short, choices A,B,C are <u>not</u> functions because they have a repeated x coordinate; in contrast, choice D doesn't have any repeated x values so it is a function.

Side note: The y values are allowed to repeat themselves, but the function won't be one-to-one.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

720

Step-by-step explanation:

If every person has to choose a different character, the first person to choose a character has 6 options, the second has 5, the third has 4, the fourth has 3, and the last person has only two options. Therefore, the total number of ways you can do this if all 5 people dress up as a different character is:

n=6*5*4*3*2\\n=720

There are 720 ways.
