Question
algebra 1 > m.4 identify functions vll
look at this table:
| x | y |
| -14 | 18 |
| 15 | 18 |
| -20 | 14 |
| 14 | 9 |
| 9 | 14 |
| 15 | -12 |
is this relation a function?
yes no
Step1: Recall function definition
A relation is a function if each input (x - value) has exactly one output (y - value).
Step2: Check x - values for uniqueness of y - values
Look at the x - value 15. In the table, when x = 15, we have two different y - values: 18 and - 12. Since one input (x = 15) is associated with more than one output, the relation does not satisfy the definition of a function.
