1. Is the relation a function? Explain your answer.

Not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is any set of ordered pairs, which can be thought of as (input, output).

A function is a relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same first component and different second components. A function can only take on one output for each input. We cannot plug in a value and get out two values.

In your first component, the input 0 has two outputs: 6 and -2.

Therefore, the given relation is not a function.

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
