1. AIR Question of the Day

A relation is the way in which two or more concepts, objects, or people are connected. Some of those relations are functions, and some aren’t. A relation is also a function if each input is assigned to exactly one output.

In the same way, a table of values may or may not represent a function.

Table B is not a function because there is one input, 2, that corresponds to two different outputs, 10 and 20.

This table does not represent a function. The input value of 4 gives two different output values, 15 and 20.

*Note that two different inputs can have the same output and it will still be a function.

Sample answer:

In the first table, f(x) is a function. The response assigns x = –1 to f(–1) = –8 twice.

In the second table, g(x) is not a function. The response assigns x = 6 to the two different y values, g(6) = –8 and g(6) = 14.
