No. If an input in a function had more than one output, that would be a mapping, but not a function.
By definition. If one input has more than one outputs then it is not a function.
Linear function:No variable appears in the function to any power other than 1.A periodic input produces no new frequencies in the output.The function's first derivative is a number; second derivative is zero.The graph of the function is a straight line.Non-linear function:A variable appears in the function to a power other than 1.A periodic function at the input produces new frequencies in the output.The function's first derivative is a function; second derivative is not zero.The graph of the function is not a straight line.
Yes, square root is one such example: square root of 4 is +2 or -2. The radical symbol (√) is used to denote the positive square root of a number; ie √4 = 2; The square root of a number is thus ±√(the number), eg square root of 4 is ±√4 = ±2.

It is possible.
By definition. If one input has more than one outputs then it is not a function.
A function is any relationship between inputs and outputs in which each input leads to exactly one output. It is possible for a function to have more than one input that yields the same output.
Yes, ( f(x) ) will always be a function if it is defined such that for every input ( x ) in its domain, there is exactly one corresponding output ( f(x) ). A function must satisfy the property that no input can produce more than one output. If this condition is met, then ( f(x) ) is indeed a function. However, if multiple outputs are assigned to a single input, then it is not a function.
Yes, it is possible to get more than one output number for a single input in certain mathematical contexts, such as in functions that are not well-defined or in multi-valued functions. For instance, in the case of the square root function, the input 4 can yield both +2 and -2 as outputs. This ambiguity occurs when the function does not adhere to the definition of a mathematical function, which requires that each input corresponds to exactly one output.
To determine if a relationship is a function, check if each input (or x-value) corresponds to exactly one output (or y-value). If any input is associated with multiple outputs, then the relationship is not a function. A common way to visualize this is by using the vertical line test: if a vertical line intersects the graph of the relationship more than once, it is not a function.

No. A function has only one output per input.
Good question. A relation is simply that; any x-value to create any y-value. A function, however, cannot be defined for multiple values of x. In other words, for a relation to be a function, it must have singular values for all x within its domain.
Because a function is defined as having distinct outputs for every input therefore... you can never have two values for one x value and you can see this relationship by drawing a vertical line.
Functions cannot have two y-values (outputs) for any single x-value (input), so if you can draw a vertical line that touches more than 1 point on the graph, it is not a function.
A set of ordered pairs does not represent a function if any input (or x-value) is associated with more than one output (or y-value). For example, the set { (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4) } does not represent a function because the input 1 corresponds to both outputs 2 and 3. In contrast, a function would have each input linked to exactly one output.
A non-function refers to a relation in which a single input can correspond to multiple outputs. In mathematical terms, a function is defined as a set of ordered pairs where each input (or domain element) is associated with exactly one output (or range element). If an input is linked to more than one output, the relation fails to meet the criteria of a function, making it a non-function. Examples include vertical lines on a graph, which violate the vertical line test for functions.
