Relations and Functions

Question 1 • FL-1200330-Algebra 2 Sem 1 - Flex

Which of the following scenarios exhibits a function relation? Take the first set listed to be the domain of the relation.

Answer
A
the set of tree heights and the set of trees in a forest
B
the set of car make and models and the set of people in a certain town
C
the set of birthdays and the set of students in a class
D
the set of people with Social Security cards and the set of Social Security numbers

Explanation

A relation is a function when each element in the domain is paired with exactly one element in the other set. Each person with a Social Security card has one Social Security number, so this relation is a function. The other choices can pair one domain element with several elements—for example, many trees can have the same height, and many students can share a birthday.
