Determnine if each table shown below represents a function or not.

Table 1 does not represent a function.

Table 2 does not represent a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

                                                 Table 1

Input (x)               1             3          5              5           9        

Output (y)             7            16         19             20       28

We know that a function is a relation where each input or x-value of the X set has a unique y-value or output of the Y set.

In other words, we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Table 1 indicates that x = 5 is repeated twice. In other words, the input x = 5 is duplicated and we know that we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Therefore, table 1 does not represent a function.

                                              Table 2

Input (x)               0.5         7          7               12        15      

Output (y)              1           15         10             23        30

We know that a function is a relation where each input or x-value of the X set has a unique y-value or output of the Y set.

In other words, we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Table 2 indicates that x = 7 is repeated twice. In other words, the input x = 7 is duplicated and we know that we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Therefore, table 2 does not represent a function.

Conclusion:

We have concluded that both tables do not represent the function.

hi! i think the answer is 1/2 : )

answer: yes, since the line has a steeper rate of change than the exponential the y-values will be greater and they will only intersect one time.
