Math Problem Statement

State the domain and range for the following relation. Then determine whether the relation represents a function. StartSet left parenthesis 0 comma 7 right parenthesis comma left parenthesis 1 comma 7 right parenthesis comma left parenthesis 2 comma 7 right parenthesis comma left parenthesis 3 comma 7 right parenthesis EndSet

Solution

To solve this, we will follow the steps below:

1. Domain:

The domain of a relation is the set of all possible x-values (the first elements in each ordered pair). From the given relation:

{(0,7),(1,7),(2,7),(3,7)}\{ (0, 7), (1, 7), (2, 7), (3, 7) \}

The domain is:

{0,1,2,3}\{ 0, 1, 2, 3 \}

2. Range:

The range of a relation is the set of all possible y-values (the second elements in each ordered pair). From the given relation, every pair has the same y-value of 7. So the range is:

{7}\{ 7 \}

3. Function Check:

A relation represents a function if every x-value in the domain is associated with exactly one y-value. In this case, each x-value (0, 1, 2, 3) is paired with the y-value 7, which satisfies the definition of a function.

Conclusion:

  • Domain: {0,1,2,3}\{ 0, 1, 2, 3 \}
  • Range: {7}\{ 7 \}
  • Is it a function? Yes, this relation represents a function because each x-value is paired with exactly one y-value.

Do you have any questions, or would you like further details?

Here are 5 related questions you might want to explore:

  1. What is the domain and range of a linear function?
  2. How do you identify a function from a set of ordered pairs?
  3. What is the difference between a relation and a function?
  4. Can a function have the same y-value for different x-values?
  5. How do you determine the domain and range from a graph?

Tip: For a relation to be a function, no x-value should be paired with more than one y-value.
