Q. Look at this set of ordered pairs:\newline(8,8)(8, 8)\newline(13,12)(13, 12)\newline(0,10)(0, 10)\newline(16,14)(16, 14)\newlineIs this relation a function?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) yes\newline(B) no
  1. Define Function: Understand the definition of a function in terms of ordered pairs.\newlineA set of ordered pairs is a function if for every xx-value (first element of the pair), there is exactly one yy-value (second element of the pair) associated with it. This means that no xx-value is repeated with different yy-values.
  2. Check Repeated Values: Examine the given set of ordered pairs to check for any repeated xx-values with different yy-values.\newlineThe given set of ordered pairs is:\newline(8,8)(8, 8)\newline(13,12)(13, 12)\newline(0,10)(0, 10)\newline(16,14)(16, 14)\newlineWe need to check if any xx-value (the first number in each pair) is repeated with a different yy-value (the second number in each pair).
  3. Verify Uniqueness: Verify if the xx-values are unique or if any are repeated with different yy-values.\newlineLooking at the xx-values in the set of ordered pairs:\newline88, 1313, 00, 1616\newlineWe can see that all xx-values are unique and none are repeated.
  4. Conclude Function Representation: Conclude whether the given set of ordered pairs represents a function based on the definition and the examination of the xx-values.\newlineSince there are no repeated xx-values with different yy-values, the given set of ordered pairs does represent a function.
