identify the mapping diagram that represents the relation and determine whether the relation is a function.

{(-1, -9),(0,-9),(4,-9),(5,-9)}

The mapping diagram that represents the relation {(-1, -9),(0,-9),(4,-9),(5,-9)} is:

-1 --> -9
0 --> -9
4 --> -9
5 --> -9

This relation is a function because each input (-1, 0, 4, 5) is associated with exactly one output (-9).
