lesson 10-19 [Autosaved]

The document discusses how to determine the domain and range of relations and whether they are functions. It introduces the vertical line test, which states that if a vertical line intersects a graph more than once, the graph does not represent a function. Examples are provided to illustrate the application of the vertical line test to various relations.

Warm Up

Determine the domain and range for each


relation. Tell me if it’s a function or not a
function
x –2 –1 0 1 2
y 3 1 –1 –3 –5

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

The Vertical Line Test

The vertical line test is used to


determine if a graph is a function.
If a vertical line passes through a
graph more than once, the graph is
not the graph of a function.
The pencil
crosses the
graph more
than once.
This is not a
function
because there
are two y-
values for the
same x-value.
Use the vertical line test to visually check if the
relation is a function.

(4,4)
(-3,3)

(1,1)

(1,-2)

Function?
No, Two points are on
The same vertical line.
Use the vertical line test to visually check if the
relation is a function.

(-3,3)
(1,1) (3,1)

(4,-2)

Function?
Yes, no two points are
on the same vertical line
Plot:(-3,5) (-4,-2) (4,3) (3,-4)
