Math Problem Statement

What are the domain and range of the function defined by the set of ordered pairs below? {(3, -4), (-1, 4), (-2, 6), (1, 0)}

Solution

The question asks for the domain and range of the function defined by the given set of ordered pairs:

{(3,4),(1,4),(2,6),(1,0)}\{(3, -4), (-1, 4), (-2, 6), (1, 0)\}

Domain:

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (or x-values).

From the given ordered pairs, the x-values are:

{3,1,2,1}\{3, -1, -2, 1\}

Thus, the domain is: {3,1,2,1}\{3, -1, -2, 1\}

Range:

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (or y-values).

From the given ordered pairs, the y-values are:

{4,4,6,0}\{-4, 4, 6, 0\}

Thus, the range is: {4,4,6,0}\{-4, 4, 6, 0\}

Final Answer:

  • Domain: {3,1,2,1}\{3, -1, -2, 1\}
  • Range: {4,4,6,0}\{-4, 4, 6, 0\}

Let me know if you'd like more details or have any questions!

Here are some related questions to consider:

  1. How do you determine whether a relation is a function based on ordered pairs?
  2. Can a function have multiple outputs for a single input? Why or why not?
  3. What is the difference between the domain of a function and the range of a function?
  4. How would you graph the ordered pairs and visually determine the domain and range?
  5. If one of the x-values repeats with a different y-value, does it affect whether the relation is a function?

Tip: Always check that each x-value is paired with only one y-value when determining if a set of ordered pairs represents a function.
