Relations & Functions
Relation: a set of ordered pairs
Domain: the set of x-coordinates
Range: the set of y-coordinates
When writing the domain and range,
do not repeat values.

Relations and Functions
Given the relation:
{(2, -6), (1, 4), (2, 4), (0,0), (1, -6), (3, 0)}
State the domain:
D: {0,1, 2, 3}
State the range:
R: {-6, 0, 4}
Relations and Functions
Given the relation:
{(1, -6), (-3, 2), (2, 5), (0,1), (5, -3), (3, 0)}
State the domain:
D:
State the range:
R:
Answer Key
Functions
● A function is a relation in which the
members of the domain (x-values)
DO NOT repeat.
● So, for every x-value there is only
one y-value that corresponds to it.
● y-values can be repeated.
Group of ordered pairs Each input has ONLY ONE output
Relations and Functions
Relations can be written in several ways:
ordered pairs, table, graph, or mapping.

Function:
Do the ordered pairs represent a
function?
{(3, 4), (7, 2), (0, -1), (-2, 2), (-5, 0), (3, 3)}
No, 3 is repeated in the domain.
{(4, 1), (5, 2), (8, 2), (9, 8)}
Yes, no x-coordinate is repeated.
Mapping
{(2, -6), (1, 4), (2, 4), (0, 0), (1, -6), (3, 0)}
Domain Range
Create two ovals with the
domain on the left and the range
on the right. 2 -6
Elements are not repeated.
Connect elements of the domain
1 4
with the corresponding elements 0 0
in the range by drawing an 3
arrow.
Graphs of a Function
Vertical Line Test:
If a vertical line is passed over the
graph and it intersects the graph in
exactly one point, the graph
represents a function.
Does the graph represent a function?
Name the domain and range.
Yes
x D: all reals
R: all reals
y
Yes
D: all reals
x R: y ≥ -6
Does the graph represent a function?
Name the domain and range.
Yes
x D: all reals
R: y ≥ -6
y
No
D: x = 2
x R: all reals
