 Identify Relations that are Functions

Determine whether the relation represents y as a

function of x.

x is the height of a student in inches, and y is the

number of books that the student owns.

Answer: No; there is more than one y-value for an

x-value.

Answer:
 Identify Relations that are Functions

C. Determine whether the graph

represents y as a function of x.

Answer: Yes; there is exactly one y-value for each x-

value. Any vertical line will intersect the
graph at only one point.
 Identify Relations that are Functions

D. Determine whether x = 3y 2 represents y as a

function of x.
To determine whether this equation represents y as a
function of x, solve the equation for y.

x = 3y 2 Original equation

Divide each side by 3.

Take the square root of each side.

 Identify Relations that are Functions

This equation does not represent y as a function of

x because there will be two corresponding y-values,
one positive and one negative, for any x-value greater
than 0.
Let x = 12.

Answer:
 Find Domains Algebraically

A. State the domain of the function .

Because the square root of a negative number cannot

be real, 4x – 1 ≥ 0. Therefore, the domain of g(x) is all
real numbers x such that x ≥ , or .
