Chapter 8.1, Problem 1AGP

To determine

To calculate: Justify whether each relation is a function.

Answer to Problem 1AGP

The given relation is a function.

Explanation of Solution

Given: $\left\{\left(5,1\right),\left(6,3\right),\left(7,5\right)\left(8,0\right)\right\}$

The relation is said to be function, if every single element of the domain is associated with one element of the range.

Domain: The domain the set of possible input values, which are shown on the x-axis.

Range: The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis.

Check the domain and range of the given relation:

It can be seen from above that each domain have a single range.

Therefore, the given relation is a function
