Question 213 • Crowley Credit Recovery Algebra II B

Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?

Answer
A
{(2, –2), (1, 5), (–2, 2), (1, –3), (8, –1)}
B
{(3, –1), (7, 1), (–6, –1), (9, 1), (2, –1)}
C
{(6, 8), (5, 2), (–2, –5), (1, –3), (–2, 9)}
D
{(–3, 1), (6, 3), (–3, 2), (–3, –3), (1, –1)}

Explanation

A set of ordered pairs represents a function when each input (the first coordinate) is paired with only one output. In choice B, the inputs 3, 7, −6, 9, and 2 are all different, so each input has exactly one output. The other choices repeat an input with different outputs, so they are not functions.
