To determine if the ordered pairs represent a function, we need to check if each input (or x-value) is associated with exactly one output (or y-value).
The ordered pairs you provided are:
- (1, 3)
- (4, 12)
- (5, 15)
- (6, 18)
Now, let's list the x-values:
- 1
- 4
- 5
- 6
Each x-value is unique and does not repeat. Since no x-value is associated with more than one y-value, the given set of ordered pairs does represent a function.
Therefore, the answer is: Yes, the ordered pairs represent a function.
