QuestionWhich set of pairs does NOT represent a function? (A) (B) (C) (D)
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are given four sets of ordered pairs. . A function is a relation in which each input (the first number in the ordered pair) has exactly one output (the second number in the ordered pair).
STEP 2
We need to check each set of ordered pairs to see if any input (the first number) is paired with more than one output (the second number).
STEP 3
Let's start with option (A). The ordered pairs are .
STEP 4
We can see that the input '2' is paired with both '2' and '7'. Therefore, this set of ordered pairs does not represent a function.
STEP 5
We don't need to check the other options because we've already found the set that doesn't represent a function.The set of ordered pairs that does NOT represent a function is (A) .
