Step-by-step solution for: Practice Worksheet: Relations & Functions | PDF
Problem Analysis:
The worksheet focuses on understanding relations and functions. A relation is any set of ordered pairs, while a function is a special type of relation where each input (x-value) corresponds to exactly one output (y-value). The task involves converting between different representations of relations (set of ordered pairs, table, graph, mapping diagram) and determining whether the relation is a function.
Additionally, for graphs, we need to identify the domain, range, and determine if the graph represents a function using the vertical line test:
- If a vertical line can intersect the graph at more than one point, it is not a function.
- If every vertical line intersects the graph at most once, it is a function.

Solution:
#### Part 1: Completing the Forms and Determining if the Relation is a Function
##### Problem 1:
- Set of ordered pairs: \(\{(-2, -1), (2, 1), (-1, -2), (1, 2)\}\)
- Table:
$$
\begin{array}{c|c}
x & y \\
\hline
-2 & -1 \\
2 & 1 \\
-1 & -2 \\
1 & 2 \\
\end{array}
$$
- Graph: Plot the points \((-2, -1)\), \((2, 1)\), \((-1, -2)\), and \((1, 2)\) on the coordinate plane.
- Mapping Diagram: Draw two ovals, one for \(x\)-values and one for \(y\)-values. Connect each \(x\) to its corresponding \(y\):
- \(-2 \rightarrow -1\)
- \(2 \rightarrow 1\)
- \(-1 \rightarrow -2\)
- \(1 \rightarrow 2\)
- Function?: Yes, because each \(x\)-value maps to exactly one \(y\)-value.
##### Problem 2:
- Table:
$$
\begin{array}{c|c}
x & y \\
\hline
1 & -2 \\
-3 & -1 \\
1 & 0 \\
2 & 2 \\
0 & 3 \\
\end{array}
$$
- Set of ordered pairs: \(\{(1, -2), (-3, -1), (1, 0), (2, 2), (0, 3)\}\)
- Graph: Plot the points \((1, -2)\), \((-3, -1)\), \((1, 0)\), \((2, 2)\), and \((0, 3)\).
- Mapping Diagram: Draw two ovals, one for \(x\)-values and one for \(y\)-values. Connect each \(x\) to its corresponding \(y\):
- \(1 \rightarrow -2\)
- \(-3 \rightarrow -1\)
- \(1 \rightarrow 0\)
- \(2 \rightarrow 2\)
- \(0 \rightarrow 3\)
- Function?: No, because the \(x\)-value \(1\) maps to two different \(y\)-values (\(-2\) and \(0\)).
##### Problem 3:
- Graph: The graph shows points at \((-2, -1)\), \((-1, 0)\), \((0, 1)\), \((1, 2)\), and \((2, 3)\).
- Set of ordered pairs: \(\{(-2, -1), (-1, 0), (0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3)\}\)
- Table:
$$
\begin{array}{c|c}
x & y \\
\hline
-2 & -1 \\
-1 & 0 \\
0 & 1 \\
1 & 2 \\
2 & 3 \\
\end{array}
$$
- Mapping Diagram: Draw two ovals, one for \(x\)-values and one for \(y\)-values. Connect each \(x\) to its corresponding \(y\):
- \(-2 \rightarrow -1\)
- \(-1 \rightarrow 0\)
- \(0 \rightarrow 1\)
- \(1 \rightarrow 2\)
- \(2 \rightarrow 3\)
- Function?: Yes, because each \(x\)-value maps to exactly one \(y\)-value.
##### Problem 4:
- Mapping Diagram: The diagram shows:
- \(-1 \rightarrow -2\)
- \(1 \rightarrow -1\)
- \(2 \rightarrow 0\)
- \(3 \rightarrow 2\)
- Set of ordered pairs: \(\{(-1, -2), (1, -1), (2, 0), (3, 2)\}\)
- Table:
$$
\begin{array}{c|c}
x & y \\
\hline
-1 & -2 \\
1 & -1 \\
2 & 0 \\
3 & 2 \\
\end{array}
$$
- Graph: Plot the points \((-1, -2)\), \((1, -1)\), \((2, 0)\), and \((3, 2)\).
- Function?: Yes, because each \(x\)-value maps to exactly one \(y\)-value.
---
#### Part 2: Analyzing Graphs
##### Problem 5:
- Graph: A straight line with points \((-3, -3)\), \((0, 0)\), and \((2, 2)\).
- Domain: All real numbers (\(x \in \mathbb{R}\)).
- Range: All real numbers (\(y \in \mathbb{R}\)).
- Function?: Yes, because it passes the vertical line test.
##### Problem 6:
- Graph: A circle centered at the origin with radius 1.
- Domain: \([-1, 1]\)
- Range: \([-1, 1]\)
- Function?: No, because a vertical line can intersect the circle at more than one point (e.g., \(x = 0\) intersects at \((0, 1)\) and \((0, -1)\)).
##### Problem 7:
- Graph: A parabola opening upwards with vertex at \((0, -2)\) and endpoints at \((-2, 0)\) and \((2, 0)\).
- Domain: \([-2, 2]\)
- Range: \([-2, 0]\)
- Function?: Yes, because it passes the vertical line test.
