A relation is a set of ordered pairs.
For example:
{ (-3, 2), (0, 8), (5, 3) }3
The ordered pairs may be displayed as a:
set
table
mapping diagram
4
A set of ordered pairs may look like this.
(This is a relation.)
5
A table may look like this.
(This is a relation.)
6
Open Ended
List 2 ordered pairs represented in this table?
7
A mapping diagram may look like this.
(This is a relation.)
8
Open Ended
List all the ordered pairs in this mapping diagram.

Our task is to determine if a relation is a FUNCTION.
We will be asked the question:
Is this relation a Function or NOT a Function?
10
What is a Function?
To be a function, each input must correspond to exactly one output.
11
Where do you find the input and output in sets, tables, and mapping diagrams?
Input is "x"
Output is "y"12
