RELATION
It is a set of ordered pairs.

FUNCTIONS
It is a relation in which each element of
the domain corresponds to exactly one
element of the range..
FUNCTIONS CAN BE
REPRESENTED IN DIFFERENT
WAYS.

𝑓 ={ ( 1 ,2 ) , ( 2 , 2 ) , ( 3 ,5 ) , ( 4 , 5 ) }

𝑔={ (1 , 3 ) , ( 1 , 4 ) , ( 2 , 5 ) , ( 2 , 6 ) ,(3 , 7) }

h={( 1 , 3 ) , ( 2 ,6 ) , ( 3 , 9 ) , … , (𝑛 ,3 𝑛 ) , … , }
 Determine whether the relationship
given in the mapping diagram is a
function.

FUNCTION
 VERTICAL LINE
TEST
A graph represents a function if and only if each
vertical line intersects the graph at most once.
Which of the following equations
describe a function?.
