1. A relation contains the ordered pairs shown. One of the ordered pairs is missing an x-coordinate. {(-1,4),(0,4),(2,5),(3,-6),(?,7)} What could be the missing x-coordinate if the relation is not a function?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There are 4 possible scenarios where given relation could not be a function:

i)  [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (-1, 7)[/tex]

ii) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (0, 7)[/tex]

iii) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (2, 7)[/tex]

iv) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (3, 7)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From Function Theory, we remember that a relation is not a function when at least one element from domain (x-coordinate) is related to one or more elements from range (y-coordinate). Hence, there are four possibilities of making the relation not a function:

i)  [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (-1, 7)[/tex]

ii) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (0, 7)[/tex]

iii) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (2, 7)[/tex]

iv) [tex](-1, 4), (0,4), (2,5), (3,-6), (3, 7)[/tex]
