When graphed, a function has any shape so that all vertical lines will cross the graph in at most one point. A relation does not have this condition. One or more vertical lines may (not must) pass thru a relation in more points.

What are different shapes of functions and relations?

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.


What are the different ways of presenting relation and function?

Is the graph a linear function nonlinear function or relation?

To determine if a graph represents a linear function, a nonlinear function, or simply a relation, you should look at its shape. A linear function will produce a straight line, indicating a constant rate of change. If the graph curves or has varying slopes, it is a nonlinear function. If the graph does not represent a function at all (such as a vertical line), it is simply a relation.


When is function a relation?

A relation is when the domain in the ordered pair (x) is different from the domain in all other ordered pairs. The range (y) can be the same and it still be a function.

how is a relation not 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'.
