Answer:
Assuming that the domain is [tex]\lbrace0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3\rbrace[/tex] (the set of whole numbers between 0 and 3, inclusive,) then only the third choice would represent a function:
[tex]\lbrace{(2,\, 15),\, (3,\, -3),\, (1,\, 3),\, (0,\, 0)\rbrace}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
A function needs to be
- one-to-one for all inputs in its domain, and
- defined for all values on its domain.
A map is one-to-one only if it maps each input to only one output.
For example, in [tex](0,\, 5)[/tex] in the first choice, [tex]0[/tex] is the input while [tex]5[/tex] is the output. If this set of coordinates is indeed one-to-one, then this input,
Similarly, the second set of coordinates tries to map the input [tex]1[/tex] to both [tex]10[/tex] and [tex]2[/tex]. This option isn't one-to-one and does not represent a function, either.
Indeed, the third, fourth, and fifth options are all one-to-one. However, there are gaps in the domain of the fourth and fifth option. (The domain of a map is the set of all the points in its definition.)
- The domain of the third option is [tex]\lbrace0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3\rbrace[/tex].
- The domain of the fourth option is [tex]\lbrace-1,\, 1,\, 3,\, 5\rbrace[/tex].
- The domain of the fifth option is [tex]\lbrace-2,\, 1,\, 4,\, 5\rbrace[/tex].
Note, that whether these options are functions depend on the choice of the domain. For example, if the domain is merely [tex]\lbrace1\rbrace[/tex], then all three options would be functions. However, if the domain is the set of all integers ([tex]\mathbb{Z}= \lbrace\dots,\, -2,\, -1,\, 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, \dots\rbrace[/tex],) then none of these choices will be a function.
