A one-to-one or injective function.
Is called "function".
A function is a special type of relation. So first let's see what a relation is. A relation is a diagram, equation, or list that defines a specific relationship between groups of elements. Now a function is a relation whose every input corresponds with a single output.
This is true. Furthermore, functions can be broken down into one-to-one (each input provides a different output), and onto (all of Y is used when f(x) = y).

A Function
A relation is not a function if it assigns the same input value to multiple output values. In other words, for a relation to be a function, each input must have exactly one output. If an input corresponds to two or more different outputs, the relation fails the vertical line test, indicating that it is not a function. For example, the relation {(1, 2), (1, 3)} is not a function because the input '1' is linked to both '2' and '3'.
An example of a relation that is not a function is the relation defined by the set of points {(1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5)}. In this relation, the input value 1 corresponds to two different output values (2 and 3), violating the definition of a function, which states that each input must have exactly one output. Therefore, since one input maps to multiple outputs, this relation is not a function.
No, not every relation is a function. In order for a relation to be a function, each input value must map to exactly one output value. If any input value maps to multiple output values, the relation is not a function.
It's a type of function
An ordered pair can represent either a relation or a function, depending on its properties. A relation is simply a set of ordered pairs, while a function is a specific type of relation where each input (first element of the pair) is associated with exactly one output (second element of the pair). If an ordered pair is part of a set where each input corresponds to only one output, it defines a function. Otherwise, it is just a relation.
It is a bijective function.
This statement is false. A vertical line intersecting the graph of a relation at more than one point indicates that for at least one input value (x-coordinate), there are multiple output values (y-coordinates). Therefore, the relation does not satisfy the definition of a function, which requires that each input corresponds to exactly one output.
That's a proper function, a conformal mapping, etc.
To determine if a relation is a function, you can use the "vertical line test." If any vertical line drawn on the graph of the relation intersects the graph at more than one point, then the relation is not a function. Additionally, in a set of ordered pairs, a relation is a function if each input (or x-value) corresponds to exactly one output (or y-value).
The relationship where each input value results in exactly one output value is known as a function. In mathematical terms, a function assigns a unique output to each member of its domain, ensuring that no input corresponds to more than one output. This characteristic distinguishes functions from other types of relations, where an input could potentially map to multiple outputs.
