Answer 1

A function is considered one-to-one (or injective) if every output value (y-value) corresponds to exactly one input value (x-value). In other words, no two distinct input values can map to the same output value.

Let's analyze each of the given sets of ordered pairs:

1. Set 1: {(7,9),(6,4),(1,2),(5,3),(4,1)}

   • Outputs: 9, 4, 2, 3, 1.
   • All outputs are unique.
   • This set is one-to-one.

2. Set 2: {(1,3),(4,5),(7,2),(1,5),(4,3)}

   • Outputs: 3, 5, 2, 5, 3.
   • The outputs 3 and 5 are repeated (1 maps to both 3 and 5, and 4 maps to both 5 and 3).
   • This set is not one-to-one.

3. Set 3: {(2,1),(4,3),(6,3),(8,6),(10,9)}

   • Outputs: 1, 3, 3, 6, 9.
   • The output 3 is repeated (4 maps to 3 and 6 also maps to 3).
   • This set is not one-to-one.

4. Set 4: {(4,2),(7,3),(10,7),(5,8),(6,2)}

   • Outputs: 2, 3, 7, 8, 2.
   • The output 2 is repeated (4 maps to 2 and 6 also maps to 2).
   • This set is not one-to-one.

Based on the analysis, the only one-to-one function among the options provided is:

Set 1: {(7,9),(6,4),(1,2),(5,3),(4,1)}.
