9. Determine if the set of ordered pairs represents a function. Explain why or why not. (2 points)
{(-4,4),(-2,2),(0,0),(-3,-2)} I personally think that there is a function but idk for sure.
For each value of X, there is only ONE value of Y.
Therefore, it is a function.
thanks man! i appreciate the confirmation.
You are welcome!
To determine if the given set of ordered pairs represents a function, we need to check if each x-value is associated with only one y-value.
A function is a relation in which each input (x-value) is associated with exactly one output (y-value). So, to determine if the given set of ordered pairs represents a function, we need to check if there are any repeated x-values.
In the given set, let's check for repeated x-values:
(-4, 4)
(-2, 2)
(0, 0)
(-3, -2)
There are no repeated x-values in the given set. Each x-value is associated with a unique y-value. Therefore, the given set of ordered pairs represents a function.
To come to this conclusion, you simply need to verify that for each x-value in the set of ordered pairs, there is only one corresponding y-value.
