Q. Look at this set of ordered pairs:\newline(1,19)(1, 19)\newline(16,5)(16, 5)\newline(1,11)(1, 11)\newlineIs this relation a function?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) yes\newline(B) no
  1. Define Function: Define what a function is in terms of ordered pairs.\newlineA relation is a function if each input (first component of the ordered pairs) corresponds to exactly one output (second component of the ordered pairs). This means that for a set of ordered pairs to be a function, each xx-value should be paired with only one yy-value.
  2. Examine Ordered Pairs: Examine the given set of ordered pairs to see if any input value is repeated with different output values.\newlineThe given set of ordered pairs is:\newline(1,19)(1, 19)\newline(16,5)(16, 5)\newline(1,11)(1, 11)\newlineWe can see that the input value 11 is associated with two different output values 1919 and 1111.
  3. Determine Functionality: Determine if the relation is a function based on the examination in Step 22. Since the input value '11' is paired with more than one output value, the relation is not a function.
