    This document discusses the differences between functions and relations in algebra: - A relation is any set of ordered pairs that shows a relationship, while a function is a special type of relation where each input is mapped to exactly one output. - The domain of a function is the set of all possible inputs, while the range is the set of all possible outputs. - To determine if a relation represented by a graph is a function, the vertical line test is used - if a vertical line intersects the graph more than once, it is not a function. - Examples are provided of relations that are and are not functions, explaining why some fail to satisfy the one-to-one mapping rule of functions

    Algebra II Name: ____________________

    #1: Analyze the difference between functions and relations.

    A relation is any set of ordered pairs or anything that has a relationship between it.

    Three Common Forms of Relations:

    1. Set of Ordered Pairs


    2. Graph
    3. Mapping Diagram

    1. Graph the relation. (Don’t connect the dots!)

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

    2. Write the ordered pairs for the relation.

    3. Write the ordered pairs for the relation.

    Domain Range
    1
    -1
    5
    3
    A function is a special relation. A7function is a one-to one ______________ that establishes a relationship between two
    numbers.

    Algebra II Name: ____________________
    #1: Analyze the difference between functions and relations.

    For every __________, there is exactly one ____________.

    The collection of all the inputs is called the ______________ of a function.

    The collection of all the outputs is called the ______________ of a function.

    Go back to #1-3 on your notes and identify the domain and range of each relation.

    Every number in the domain must match up to exactly one number in the range.
    Are the following examples of functions or relations? Explain your reasoning.

    The Vertical Line Test

    In the previous example, we looked at mapping diagrams. What if we have a picture instead?
    When given a graph, we will use the Vertical Line Test to decide if it is a function.

    If a vertical line hits the graph once, it is a function.


    If a vertical line hits the graph more than once, it is not a function.

    Algebra II Name: ____________________
    #1: Analyze the difference between functions and relations.

    Are the following examples of functions or relations? Explain your reasoning.

    Just remember:
    A function may not have two y-values assigned to the same x-value, such as {(2,4), (2,6)}.
    A function may, however, have two x-values assigned to the same y-value, such as {(2,4), (3,4)}.

    On Your Own
    Sort each of the following relations into functions and not functions. For each piece that is not a function, write a short
    reason why it cannot be a function.
