To determine which of the given relations are functions, we need to remember that a relation is a function if each input (first element of the ordered pairs) maps to exactly one output (second element of the ordered pairs).

Let's analyze each option:

  1. (-1, 3), (-4, 3), (-2, 3), (0, 3):

    • All first elements (-1, -4, -2, 0) are different.
    • This relation is a function.
  2. (8, 2), (6, 5), (7, -1), (6, 5):

    • The first element 6 is repeated, mapping to the same second element (5).
    • This relation is a function.
  3. (2, 4), (2, 7), (2, -1), (2, 0):

    • The first element 2 is repeated, mapping to different second elements (4, 7, -1, 0).
    • This relation is not a function.
  4. (8, 2), (6, -5), (7, -1), (6, 5):

    • The first element 6 is repeated, mapping to different second elements (-5 and 5).
    • This relation is not a function.

Therefore, the relations that are functions are:

  1. (-1, 3), (-4, 3), (-2, 3), (0, 3)
  2. (8, 2), (6, 5), (7, -1), (6, 5)
