A Function. That is the definition of a function.
I like to think of a function, f(x) as a number crunching machine. the number crunching machine eats different x 's. It eats each and every x and crunches it the same way, but spits out a new Y every time. Remember, y = f(x). That is, "y is a function of x".
There you go.
It is a surjective relationship. It may or may not be injective, and therefore, bijective.
When each x value has only one y value, the relation is classified as a function. In a function, for every input (x), there is a unique output (y), ensuring that no x value is paired with multiple y values. This characteristic is crucial for determining the validity of a mathematical function, making it predictable and consistent.
A set of ordered pairs obtained by exchanging the x-coordinates with the y-coordinates of each ordered pair in a relation or function is called the "inverse relation." For example, if the original relation consists of pairs (x, y), the inverse relation will consist of pairs (y, x). This transformation can reveal different properties of the relation, such as whether it is one-to-one or onto in the context of functions.
Two variables, X and Y, are in inverse relation if X*Y = a constant.
Yes, there is only one y value for each x value.

the answer is FUNCTION thank you kian

A function is an equation (a relation) which has only one y-value for every x-value. If a single x-value has more than one y-value, the equation is no longer called a function.
Yes, there is only one y value for each x value.
The Vertical Line Test An example might be x=cos(y). At any value of x between -1 a nd +1 (a vertical line on the graph) this is multivalued (and so it is called "multivalued"). The relation is a function, because given y you can calculate x. x is a function of y. The relation between y and x can also be written y=cos-1(x) "y is the angle whose cosine is x". From that point of view you can say " y is not a function of x" because for each x, there is more than one y that satisfyies the equation. To summarize, in this example x is a function of y but y is not a function of x.
A relation is just a set of ordered pairs. They are in no special order. Therefore there is no particular shape assigned to a relation. A function is a special kind of relation. A relation becomes a function when the x value only has one y value.
A relation is a function when an x value only has one y value associated with it. An easy way to tell this is to graph the relation, then draw a vertical line through it. If, at any point, it touches the graph twice, the relation isn't a function.
A relation is also a function if each member of the domain (or x-coordinate) is paired with only one member of the range (or y-coordinate). If the relation is a set of ordered pairs that consists of real numbers a graph can be created to visualize the relation. If a vertical line can be drawn and only crosses or intersects the graph at one point then the relation is also a function.
A function is an equation that gives a unique answer. A relation does not. Example: y = 3x + 1 is a function. If I give you x, you can determine y. And that y is unique to that x. So if x = 1, you know y = 4. No other of x gives y = 4 as an answer. So y = 3x + 1 is a function. Example: y = 4x2. So if I give you x = 1, y = 4. But y = 4 if I also give you x = -1. So y = 4x2 is not a function, it is a relation.
