Question

5. Which of the following are functions? The last two problems, i.e., b & c, are multi part relations consider all parts when determining whether or not these relations are functions. Explain your reasoning for a, b, and c.

a. f(x) = x + 3

b. f(x) = 73 if x>2 otherwise f(x) = -1

c. f(x) = 79if x>0 or f(x) = -9 if x<0 or f(x) = 9 or -9 if x = 0

Answer 1

c has two values of f(x) at x=0. Not allowed.
