Use the relation from Problem 1. What are the domain and range of the relation?
How could you use the mapping diagram in Problem 1 to find the domain and range?
The input corresponds to the domain of the relation. The output corresponds to the range.
The relation is {(0, 10,000), (4, 9744), (8, 8976), (12, 7696), (16, 5904)}.
The domain is the set of x-coordinates. | {0, 4, 8, 12, 16} |
The range is the set of y-coordinates. | {10,000, 9744, 8976, 7696, 5904} |
What are the domain and range of this relation?
{(
A function is a relation in which each element of the domain corresponds with exactly one element of the range.
Is the relation a function?
Each element in the domain corresponds with exactly one element in the range. This relation is a function.
{
Each x-coordinate must correspond to only one y-coordinate. The x-coordinate 4 corresponds to
How can you use a mapping diagram to determine whether a relation is a function?
A function has only one arrow from each element of the domain.
You can use the vertical-line test to determine whether a relation is a function. The vertical-line test states that if a vertical line passes through more than one point on the graph of a relation, then the relation is not a function.
Here's Why It Works If a vertical line passes through a graph at more than one point, there is more than one value in the range that corresponds to one value in the domain.
